Evolutionary significance of antiparasite, antipredator and learning phenotypes of avian nest defence

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: Evolutionary significance of antiparasite, antipredator and learning phenotypes of avian nest defence, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 12/06/2018
  • how: Despite many convergent similarities the authors showed within two species belonging to different parasitic/predator systems defence phenotypes that have been differentially selected so that the authors could detect from neutral to opposite selection strengths and directions . To test effectiveness and selection of nest defence as antiparasite and antipredator responses the authors identified relevant behavioural responses elicited by presentations of a series of threatening species models . . .
