Vocal plasticity in a reptile
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 284 Số 1855 - Trang 20170451 - 2017
Henrik Brumm, Sue Anne Zollinger
Sophisticated vocal communication systems of birds and mammals, including human speech, are characterized by a high degree of plasticity in which signals are individually adjusted in response to changes in the environment. Here, we present, to our knowledge, the first evidence for vocal plasticity in a reptile. Like birds and mammals, tokay geckos ( Ge...... hiện toàn bộ
Historical ecology with real numbers: past and present extent and biomass of an imperilled estuarine habitat
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 279 Số 1742 - Trang 3393-3400 - 2012
Philine S. E. zu Ermgassen, Mark Spalding, Brady Blake, Loren D. Coen, Brett R. Dumbauld, Steve Geiger, Jonathan H. Grabowski, Raymond E. Grizzle, Mark W. Luckenbach, Kay A. McGraw, W.S. Rodney, Jennifer L. Ruesink, Sean P. Powers, R. Dan Brumbaugh
Historic baselines are important in developing our understanding of ecosystems in the face of rapid global change. While a number of studies have sought to determine changes in extent of exploited habitats over historic timescales, few have quantified such changes prior to late twentieth century baselines. Here, we present, to our knowledge, the first ever large-scale quantitative assessme...... hiện toàn bộ
Sensory compensation and the detection of predators: the interaction between chemical and visual information
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 267 Số 1443 - Trang 571-575 - 2000
Eric J. Hartman, Mark V. Abrahams
Corals escape bleaching in regions that recently and historically experienced frequent thermal stress
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 276 Số 1669 - Trang 2893-2901 - 2009
D. M. Thompson, Robert van Woesik
The response of coral-reef ecosystems to contemporary thermal stress may be in part a consequence of recent or historical sea-surface temperature (SST) variability. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether: (i) there was a relationship between the historical frequency of SST variability and stress experienced during the most recent thermal-stress events (in 1998 and 2005–2...... hiện toàn bộ
Know thine enemy: fighting fish gather information from observing conspecific interactions
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 265 Số 1401 - Trang 1045-1049 - 1998
Rui F. Oliveira, Peter K. McGregor, Claire Latruffe
The evolution of cursorial carnivores in the Tertiary: implications of elbow-joint morphology
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 270 Số suppl_2 - 2003
Ki Andersson, Lars Werdelin
Discrimination by female mice between the odours of parasitized and non-parasitized males
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 261 Số 1360 - Trang 31-35 - 1995
Martin Kavaliers, Douglas D. Colwell
Evolution of the immune system in humans from infancy to old age
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 282 Số 1821 - Trang 20143085 - 2015
James H. Shelhamer, Georg A. Holländer, Andrew J. McMichael
This article reviews the development of the immune response through neonatal, infant and adult life, including pregnancy, ending with the decline in old age. A picture emerges of a child born with an immature, innate and adaptive immune system, which matures and acquires memory as he or she grows. It then goes into decline in old age. These changes are considered alongside the risks of dif...... hiện toàn bộ
Oviposition site choice under conflicting risks demonstrates that aquatic predators drive terrestrial egg-laying
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 282 Số 1808 - Trang 20150376 - 2015
Justin C. Touchon, Julie L. Worley
Laying eggs out of water was crucial to the transition to land and has evolved repeatedly in multiple animal phyla. However, testing hypotheses about this transition has been difficult because extant species only breed in one environment. The pantless treefrog, Dendropsophus ebraccatus , makes such tests possible because they ...... hiện toàn bộ
Imitation dynamics predict vaccinating behaviour
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - Tập 272 Số 1573 - Trang 1669-1675 - 2005
Chris T. Bauch
There exists an interplay between vaccine coverage, disease prevalence and the vaccinating behaviour of individuals. Moreover, because of herd immunity, there is also a strategic interaction between individuals when they are deciding whether or not to vaccinate, because the probability that an individual becomes infected depends upon how many other individuals are vaccinated. To understand...... hiện toàn bộ
