Mammalian-like features of sleep structure in zebra finches.
A suite of complex electroencephalographic patterns of sleep occurs in mammals. In sleeping zebra finches, we observed slow wave sleep (SWS), rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, an intermediate sleep (IS) stage commonly occurring in, but not limited to, transitions between other stages, and high amplitude transients reminiscent of K-complexes. SWS density decreased whereas REM density increased thr...
متن کاملA Mammalian-like Pattern in Zebra Finch Sleep During sleep, the zebra finch’s (Taeniopygia Guttata) Robustus Archistriatalis
During sleep, the zebra finch's (Taeniopygia Guttata) Robustus Archistriatalis song nucleus (RA) neurons rehearse song patterns spontaneously and respond to playback of the bird's own song. Investigation of the possible role of sleep in song learning or maintenance is hampered by the limited knowledge of sleep states in passerine birds. We therefore investigated the staging of sleep in zebra fi...
متن کاملAdult zebra finches rehearse highly variable song patterns during sleep
Brain activity during sleep is fairly ubiquitous and the best studied possible function is a role in memory consolidation, including motor memory. One suggested mechanism of how neural activity effects these benefits is through reactivation of neurons in patterns resembling those of the preceding experience. The specific patterns of motor activation replayed during sleep are largely unknown for...
متن کاملZebra finches are sensitive to prosodic features of human speech.
Variation in pitch, amplitude and rhythm adds crucial paralinguistic information to human speech. Such prosodic cues can reveal information about the meaning or emphasis of a sentence or the emotional state of the speaker. To examine the hypothesis that sensitivity to prosodic cues is language independent and not human specific, we tested prosody perception in a controlled experiment with zebra...

software tool that bins genomic fragments that have first undergone limited preassembly into contigs. Their strategy uses a variational Bayesian approach combining sequence composition and correlated abundance across multiple samples to produce sequence assignments. CONCOCT bins genomes with high precision and recall in simulated and real data, providing higher coverage than can typically be re...
