Nucleus striae terminalis lesions affect agonistic behavior of pigeons.
MARTIN RAMIREZ, J. AND J. D. DELIUS. Nucleus striae terminalis lesions affect agonistic behavior in pigeons. PHYSIOL. BEHAV. 22(5) 871-875, 1979.--Bilateral lesions of the nucleus striae terminalis suppressed the aggressive behavior shown by selected pigeons in response to a stick or the experimenter's hand being introduced into their home cage. Sham-operated animals did not show such an effect...
متن کاملLateral telencephalic lesions affect visual discriminations in pigeons.
The importance of the lateral telencephalon of the pigeon for visual performance was examined. Lesions in this area markedly impaired both the acquisition and the retention of instrumentally learned hue, intensity and pattern discriminations. Comparable lesions of the thalamofugal visual projection in the dorsoanterior telencephalon did not have an appreciable effect. Laterally lesioned pigeons...
متن کاملAggressive Behavior of Pigeons: Suppression by Archistriatal Lesions
The agonistic responses of pigeons to the introduction of a stick and the experimenter’s hand into their home cages is described. The effects of lesions of the archistriatum, a presumed homologue of the mammalian amygdala, of lesions of the overlying neostriatum and of control sham operations on this behavior in selected aggressive pigeons are reported. Only archistriatal lesions lead to a pers...
متن کاملLESIONS OF THE LD1BIC SYSTEM: THEIR EFFECT ON THE AGONISTIC BEHAVIOUR OF THE PIGEOn
Lesions in the archistriatum, the avian homologue of the amygdala, and the nucleus striae terminalis suppress the aggressive behaviour and enhance the avoidance behaviour of selected aggressive pigeons. Similar limbic circuits thus seem to control aggression in birds and mammals. It is well documented in mammals that the limbic system plays an important role in the control of aggression. For bi...
متن کاملThe effects of lesions of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis on sodium appetite.
Lesions of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis result in decrements in sodium ingestion. Specifically, sodium ingestion that is aroused by mineralocorticoids, in addition to sodium depletion, was reduced in rats with large lesions of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis. Need-free salt ingestion was also reduced. These results suggest that the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis may be i...
