Molt and Plumage Patterns
Identification of birds not only means identifying the species of an individual, but also can include identifying its subspecies, sex, and age. Field identification of the age and sex of a bird can be important for studying many aspects of avian ecology and evolution, including life history evolution, reproductive ecology, and behavioral ecology. Ornithologists use a variety of characteristics ...

متن کاملMolt-breeding overlap alters molt dynamics and behavior in zebra finches, Taeniopygia guttata castanotis.
Costly events in the life history cycle of organisms such as reproduction, migration and pelage/plumage replacement are typically separated in time to maximize their outcome. Such temporal separation is thought to be necessitated by energetical trade-offs, and mediated through physiological processes. However, certain species, such as tropical birds, are able to overlap two costly life history ...
متن کاملA molt timer is involved in the metamorphic molt in Manduca sexta larvae.
Manduca sexta larvae are a model for growth control in insects, particularly for the demonstration of critical weight, a threshold weight that the larva must surpass before it can enter metamorphosis on a normal schedule, and the inhibitory action of juvenile hormone on this checkpoint. We examined the effects of nutrition on allatectomized (CAX) larvae that lack juvenile hormone to impose the ...
متن کاملStimulation of molt by RNA interference of the molt-inhibiting hormone in the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus.
In crustaceans, molting is known to be under the control of neuropeptide hormones synthesized and secreted from the eyestalk ganglia. While the role of molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH) in regulating molting has been described in several species using classical methods, an in vivo specific MIH targeted manipulation has not been described yet. In the present study, an MIH cDNA was isolated and seque...
