In ants, bees, and other social Hymenoptera alarm pheromones are widely employed to coordinate colony nest defense. In that context, alarm pheromones elicit innate species-specific defensive behaviors. Therefore, in terms of classical condi...

Abstract: Prey strategically respond to the risk of predation by varying their behavior while balancing the tradeoffs of food and safety. We present here an experiment that tests the way the same indirect cues of predatio...
The scent of infanticide risk? Behavioural allocation to current and future reproduction in response to mating opportunity and familiarity with intruder [0.03%]
杀婴风险的气味?交配机会和与入侵者熟悉度对当前及未来繁殖行为的影响

Abstract: The killing of young by unrelated males is widespread in the animal kingdom. In short-lived small rodents, females can mate immediately after delivery (post-partum oestrus) and invest in future reproduction, but...
Parasite infection and host personality: Glugea-infected three-spined sticklebacks are more social [0.03%]

Abstract: The existence of animal personality is now well-documented, although the causes and consequences of this phenomenon are still largely unclear. Parasite infection can have pervasive effects on hosts, including al...

Abstract: Cognition is fundamental to animals' lives and an important source of phenotypic variation. Nevertheless, research on individual variation in animal cognition is still limited. Further, although individual cogni...

The identification of appropriate companions and mates is essential to both speciation and the maintenance of species through prezygotic isolation. In many birds, social assortment is mediated by vocalizations learned through imitation. Whe...
Social network dynamics: the importance of distinguishing between heterogeneous and homogeneous changes [0.03%]

Social network analysis is increasingly applied to understand the evolution of animal sociality. Identifying ecological and evolutionary drivers of complex social structures requires inferring how social networks change over time. In most o...
Sex differences in life history, behavior, and physiology along a slow-fast continuum: a meta-analysis [0.03%]
从快慢连续体视角探讨生活史、行为和生理的性别差异:元分析研究
Maja Tarka,Anja Guenther,Petri T Niemelä et al.

The pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis predicts that behavior and physiology covary with life history. Evidence for such covariation is contradictory, possibly because systematic sources of variation (e.g. sex) have been neglected. Sex...
Circular data in biology: advice for effectively implementing statistical procedures [0.03%]
生物学中的循环数据:有效实施统计程序的建议

Circular data are common in biological studies. The most fundamental question that can be asked of a sample of circular data is whether it suggests that the underlying population is uniformly distributed around the circle, or whether it is ...

Phenotypic plasticity can be a key determinant of fitness. The degree to which the expression of plasticity is adaptive relies upon the accuracy with which information about the state of the environment is integrated. This step might be par...
