After examining more than a thousand clutches of eggs, researchers at Oxford University in England say a female great tit inherits her eggshell pattern from her mother’s side of the family. Just what ...
The evolution of new traits with novel functions has always posed a challenge to evolutionary biology. Studying the color markings of cichlid fish, Swiss scientists were now able to show what ...
1. We test the consequences, in terms of breeding success and parental effort, of eggshell pigmentation pattern in a hole-nesting bird, the blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus that lays eggs asymmetrically ...
Figure 1: Eggs laid by hosts of the brood parasitic common cuckoo. Thus, SIFT evaluates patterns in a way that is neurobiologically plausible, not just for primates but also for birds, providing a ...
