Published in 2023 at "Journal of Comparative Neurology"

DOI: 10.1002/cne.25474

Abstract: The locus coeruleus (LC) is a small noradrenergic brainstem nucleus that plays a central role in regulating arousal, attention, and performance. In the mammalian brain, individual LC neurons make divergent axonal projections to different brain… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Behavioural Processes"

DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2018.03.018

Abstract: Vocal recognition is central to the coordination and organization of behavior in pair-bonding species such as zebra finches. Zebra finches' vocalizations are individualized and support acoustic discrimination processes. Physiological states - such as the ones… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of neuroscience methods"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jneumeth.2019.108399

Abstract: BACKGROUND The demand to sample brain regions in non-model species is increasing as more studies are integrating neurological data into behavioural, ecological or evolutionary analysis. However, the sampling operation is difficult for researchers without neuroscience… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "General and comparative endocrinology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2017.10.012

Abstract: In chicken, corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) acts as a thyrotropin (TSH)-releasing factor, mediated by the type 2 CRH receptor (CRHR2) on the thyrotropes of the pituitary gland. It is not known whether CRH also controls TSH… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Conservation Physiology"

DOI: 10.1093/conphys/coz094

Abstract: Summary statement Stress hormones affect immune responses, behaviour and other host traits that can influence how individual hosts contribute to disease cycles (i.e. competence). We found that differences in the duration of experimental elevations of… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "PLOS One"

DOI: 10.1101/2024.08.29.610238

Abstract: The zebra finch is a well-studied animal model for investigating the neural mechanisms of vocal learning, and electrophysiology is the primary technique for understanding their song system. Most of the studies on zebra finches have… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Anatomy"

DOI: 10.1111/joa.12809

Abstract: Comparative developmental studies have shown that the retina of altricial fish and mammals is incompletely developed at birth, and that, during the first days of life, maturation proceeds rapidly. In contrast, precocial fish and mammals… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of neurophysiology"

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00247.2025

Abstract: Postnatal experience is critical to auditory development in vertebrates. The Australian zebra finch (Taeniopygia castanotis) provides a valuable model for understanding how complex social-acoustical environments influence development of the neural circuits that support perception of… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of neurophysiology"

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00694.2017

Abstract: The caudal mesopallium (CM) is a cortical-level area in the songbird auditory pathway where selective, invariant responses to familiar songs emerge. To characterize the cell types that perform this computation, we made whole cell recordings… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Cytogenetic and Genome Research"

DOI: 10.1159/000521716

Abstract: Tandem repetitive sequences represent a significant part of many genomes but remain poorly characterized due to various methodological difficulties. Here, we describe the tandem repeat composition in the genome of zebra finch, Taeniopygia guttata, a… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "BMC Genomics"

DOI: 10.1186/s12864-017-3506-z

Abstract: BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important in various biological processes, but very few studies on lncRNA have been conducted in birds. To identify IncRNAs expressed during feather development, we analyzed single-stranded RNA-seq (ssRNA-seq) data from… read more here.
