parental care

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Heat dissipation capacity influences reproductive performance in an aerial insectivore
    Simon Tapper, Joseph J. Nocera, Gary Burness
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb222232 doi: 10.1242/jeb.222232 Published 22 May 2020

    Editors' Choice: Empirical evidence that the ability to dissipate body heat constrains offspring feeding behaviour in a breeding bird, the tree swallow.

  • COMMENTARY
    Physiology, activity and costs of parental care in birds
    Tony D. Williams
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb169433 doi: 10.1242/jeb.169433 Published 10 September 2018

    Summary: Contrary to expectation, parental care might not involve sustained, high-intensity activity; that is, it might not be ‘hard work’ and, consequently, costs of reproduction and physiological signatures of costs might rarely be experienced.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Modeling the costs and benefits associated with the evolution of endothermy using a robotic python
    J. Alex Brashears, Ty C. M. Hoffman, Dale F. DeNardo
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 2409-2417; doi: 10.1242/jeb.151886

    Summary: A robotic snake that models the energetic costs and thermal benefits associated with facultative endothermy in pythons.

  • REVIEW
    Intergenerational transmission of sociality: the role of parents in shaping social behavior in monogamous and non-monogamous species
    Allison M. Perkeybile, Karen L. Bales
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 114-123; doi: 10.1242/jeb.142182

    Summary: In this paper, we review the ways in which parents shape social behavior in offspring, in both monogamous and non-monogamous mammals.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Oxidative stress during courtship affects male and female reproductive effort differentially in a wild bird with biparental care
    Bibiana Montoya, Mahara Valverde, Emilio Rojas, Roxana Torres
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 3915-3926; doi: 10.1242/jeb.141325

    Summary: In the brown booby, oxidative stress may arise as a cost of pre-laying reproductive investment in both sexes and constrain investment in eggs and offspring by females.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Does reproduction protect against oxidative stress?
    David Costantini, Giulia Casasole, Marcel Eens
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 4237-4243; doi: 10.1242/jeb.114116
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Female but not male zebra finches adjust heat output in response to increased incubation demand
    Davina L. Hill, Jan Lindström, Dominic J. McCafferty, Ruedi G. Nager
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 1326-1332; doi: 10.1242/jeb.095323
