A testosterone-mediated trade-off between parental and sexual effort in male mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).
Effects of testosterone (T) on parental behavior of male Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) were examined. After undergoing gonadectomy, castrated males were implanted with empty capsules or capsules containing T; sham-operated males were implanted with empty Silastic capsules. Subsequently, each male was paired with a pregnant female, and after delivery, families were observed 15 min/da...
متن کاملFemale urinary chemosignals influence scent-marking behavior in male Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).
The influence of females on the amount of scent-marking behavior displayed by male Mongolian gerbils was investigated. Males isolated from females scent mark at a low level which increases more than two-fold if females are present in the room for three weeks without direct contact with the males. A similar increase is obtained by application of pooled female urine directly onto the males' noses.
متن کاملVariations in serum gonadotropin and prolactin levels during consecutive reproductive states in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).
Serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and prolactin (PRL) levels were examined during consecutive reproductive states in Mongolian gerbils. The results indicate that FSH, LH, and PRL levels peak at proestrus, estrus, and diestrus, respectively. During early gestation in primiparous gerbils, gonadotropin levels were the lowest on day 6. This was followed by an incre...
متن کاملVariations of serum estradiol and progesterone levels during consecutive reproductive states in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).
Serum estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) levels were measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) during consecutive reproductive states in Mongolian gerbils. The results show that E2 and P4 levels throughout the estrous cycle in Mongolian gerbils peaked at proestrus and estrus, respectively. During gestation in primiparous and multiparous gerbils, E2 levels reached a small peak on day 6 ...
متن کاملHormonal regulation of agonistic and affiliative behavior in female mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus).
Ovarian steroids and oxytocin (OT) have been implicated in the regulation of social behaviors. The purpose of the present study was to examine hormonal substrates of aggression and affiliation in the female Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus), a highly social, monogamous rodent. Sexually naive adult females were paired with sexually experienced males for 48 h and their interactions videota...
