متن کاملCorticosterone regulation in house sparrows invading Senegal.
What traits help organisms expand their ranges? Several behavioral and life history traits have been identified, but physiological and especially endocrinological factors have been minimally considered. Here, we asked whether steroid hormonal responses to stressors might be important. Previously, we found that corticosterone (CORT) responses to a standard restraint stressor were stronger at a r...
متن کاملMale Morphology and Nest-site Quality in House Sparrows
-Previous research on House Sparrows (Passer domesticus) in Europe indicated that males with larger bibs are more likely to obtain nest sites with multiple potential nests. To test this observation experimentally, I created nest sites containing either one or two nest boxes. 1 found no morphological differences, including bib size, between males at single-box nest sites (SBNS’s) and those at do...
متن کاملCoping with novelty and stress in free-living house sparrows.
Individuals respond differently to stressors and it has been suggested that stress responses are related to coping styles (consistent individual differences in behavior and physiology). We studied behavioral responses to a novel object and corticosterone response to stress during chick rearing in free-living female house sparrows (Passer domesticus). To prevent mates from influencing each other...
متن کاملSurveillance for microbes and range expansion in house sparrows.
Interactions between hosts and parasites influence the success of host introductions and range expansions post-introduction. However, the physiological mechanisms mediating these outcomes are little known. In some vertebrates, variation in the regulation of inflammation has been implicated, perhaps because inflammation imparts excessive costs, including high resource demands and collateral dama...
