Abstract

Egg recognition and rejection is a common and effective anti-parasitism adaptation in bird hosts. Hosts reject alien eggs using recognition signals such as egg ground color and maculation. Green-backed tits (Parus monticolus) have a highly developed capability for recognizing parasite eggs, but the cues used for egg recognition are unclear. We combined avian visual perceptual modeling and field experiments to explore the effects of egg ground color and maculation on the recognition of parasite eggs. P. monticolus uses a multi-cue with possible hierarchical mechanism for egg recognition. The mechanism of egg recognition in P. monticolus appears to be a specific adaptation to the phenotypes of eggs laid by local brood parasites.
基于多组分线索的绿背山雀(Parus monticolus)寄生虫卵识别
卵的识别和排斥是鸟类宿主中常见且有效的抗寄生适应。宿主通过识别信号(如蛋的颜色和斑点)来拒绝外来蛋。绿背山雀(Parus monticolus)具有高度发达的识别寄生虫卵的能力,但用于识别卵的线索尚不清楚。我们将鸟类视觉感知建模和野外实验相结合,探讨蛋的颜色和斑点对寄生虫蛋识别的影响。P.monticolus使用了一种可能具有层次机制的多线索来识别卵子。monticolus的卵子识别机制似乎是对当地繁殖寄生虫产下的卵子表型的特异性适应。

期刊介绍: Avian Biology Research provides a forum for the publication of research in every field of ornithology. It covers all aspects of pure and applied ornithology for wild or captive species as well as research that does not readily fit within the publication objectives of other ornithological journals. By considering a wide range of research fields for publication, Avian Biology Research provides a forum for people working in every field of ornithology.
