Abstract: The mechanism(s) underlying photorefractoriness in temperate zone seasonally breeding birds remains undetermined. Our recent findings reveal a link between the upregulation of GABAA receptors (GABAARs) in the premammillary nucleus (PMM) and the state of photorefractoriness.… read more here.
