First Report of Coccidiosis and Gizzard Erosion in a Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata) of Iran
Coccidiosis and gizzard erosion are rare conditions in cage bird. A male zebra finch was presented with a history of watery diarrhea, anorexia, ruffled feathers, weight loss, and lethargy and died finally. Gross necropsy revealed small areas of erosions and hemorrhages on the gizzard wall. The intestine was oedematous. The spleen appeared pale and small. The testes were asymmetric.Histologicall...
متن کاملGaze Strategy in the Free Flying Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata)
Fast moving animals depend on cues derived from the optic flow on their retina. Optic flow from translational locomotion includes information about the three-dimensional composition of the environment, while optic flow experienced during a rotational self motion does not. Thus, a saccadic gaze strategy that segregates rotations from translational movements during locomotion will facilitate extr...
متن کاملEmbryological Staging of the Zebra Finch, Taeniopygia guttata
Zebra Finches (Taeniopygia guttata) are the most commonly used laboratory songbird species, yet their embryological development has been poorly characterized. Most studies to date apply Hamburger and Hamilton stages derived from chicken development; however, significant differences in development between precocial and altricial species suggest that they may not be directly comparable. We provid...
متن کاملProposal to Sequence the Genome of the Zebra Finch ( Taeniopygia guttata ) Submitted to NHGRI by the Zebra Finch Genome Consortium
We enthusiastically advocate the zebra finch, a songbird, as a target of highest priority for whole genome sequencing. The zebra finch is an established research organism with particular relevance to human neuroscience and a proven track record of influential ground breaking discoveries that have informed human biology. Evolutionary considerations, such as distance from other sequenced genomes,...
متن کاملTimbre control in zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) song syllables.
Zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) song syllables often include harmonically related frequency components. These harmonics may be suppressed, and this differential emphasis varies between the syllables in a song and between individual birds' songs. These patterns of harmonic suppression are timbre. Individual syllables' patterns of harmonic suppression are constant with adult males' songs. Young...
