Condition-dependent chemosignals in reproductive behavior of lizards.
This article is part of a Special Issue "Chemosignals and Reproduction". Many lizards have diverse glands that produce chemosignals used in intraspecific communication and that can have reproductive consequences. For example, information in chemosignals of male lizards can be used in intrasexual competition to identify and assess the fighting potential or dominance status of rival males either ...
متن کاملReproductive behavior in carrier couples for transfusion-dependent thalassemia major: evaluation of knowledge, attitude and practice
Background and Purpose: Despite extensive research on family planning and education, reproductive behavior of high-risk couples for thalassemia remains a major concern among medical professionals. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitude of carrier couples for transfusion-dependent thalassemia major (TDTM). Methods: This case-control study was conducted 327 carrier couples for...
متن کاملRelationships among reproductive morphology, behavior, and testosterone in a natural population of green anole lizards.
Laboratory studies of reproductive systems have long supported the idea that neural and/or muscular structures used frequently are often enhanced in size. However, field studies integrating behavioral, morphological, and hormonal data are needed to better understand relationships in natural environments. We examined a natural population of green anole lizards (Anolis carolinensis) to determine ...
متن کاملSculpting reproductive circuits: relationships among hormones, morphology and behavior in anole lizards.
Morphology parallels function on a variety of levels in reproductive circuits in anole lizards, as in many vertebrate groups. For example, across species within the anole genus the muscle fibers regulating extension of a throat fan used in courtship are larger in males than females. Endocrine factors controlling behavior and morphology have been studied in detail in one species, the green anole...
