While several studies have demonstrated the effects of various disturbances on bird vocalizations, very few have tested how lack of sleep affects birdsong. To investigate the importance of sleep for adult birds' vocalizations, we analysed the vocal performance of captive common mynahs (<i>Acridotheres tristis</i>) after three sleep disturbance experiments: the entire night, first 6 h of the night or last 6 h of the night of sleep disturbance. Sleep disturbances altered song performance, specifically by reducing song output and complexity, but did not affect call output. Sleep disturbances also affected call spectral parameters. These effects varied according to the degree of disturbance, strongest in a full night of sleep disturbance, followed by the first 6 h of the night and last 6 h of the night, respectively. These results indicate that even short-term sleep disturbance can affect adult birds' vocalizations' frequency and structure. These changes could alter birds' communication, negatively impacting social interactions and the acquisition of resources and mates, potentially affecting fitness.</p>","PeriodicalId":520757,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

Heterotherms can both endogenously maintain body temperature with metabolic heat and behaviourally thermoregulate by selecting suitable microclimates. Expending excess energy to maintain stable high body temperatures may be prioritized during certain times of the year, or for certain activities (e.g. reproduction, escape from predation). Alternatively, behavioural thermoregulation may take precedence when energy savings are critical. The degree to which heterotherms rely on these different strategies has rarely been studied. To address this gap, we measured body temperature and selected temperatures on a thermal gradient for heterothermic bumble bee queens (<i>Bombus huntii</i>) at two life stages: during spring, when ovary development prior to colony establishment is critical, and in autumn, when they build energy stores for overwintering. Not only did spring queens have a narrower range of body temperatures than autumn queens, but they maintained higher body temperatures at cooler gradient temperatures. These results suggest that thermoregulatory strategy varies seasonally to sustain key activities but is context dependent: when ambient temperatures are cool, metabolic heat production is relied upon if reproductive pressure is high and reduced if accumulating energy reserves is critical.</p>","PeriodicalId":520757,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

Here, we underscore that an organism's lifestyle influences the extent of thermal fluctuation in its environment. We predict that subterranean species feature a narrower thermal tolerance breadth than surface-dwelling species, as the former evolve under dampened thermal variance. Using thermal limits data, we test this hypothesis in reptiles, mammals and arthropods. Subterranean species (<i>n</i> = 5-37 per taxon) featured reduced tolerance breadths compared with surface-dwelling species, and the difference was significant in reptiles and mammals; additionally, subterranean arthropods featured a significantly lower CT<sub>max</sub> and higher CT<sub>min</sub> than surface species.

The processing of these hedonic mechanisms is suggested to be mediated by opioid neurotransmission; however, most evidence comes from humans and other mammals. Here we argue that, in mutualistic associations, client fish seek to interact with cleaner fish not only due to the immediate benefits of being cleaned but also because of the hedonic impact of tactile stimulation, modulated by the opioid system. We used a conditioned place preference (CPP) paradigm to test the hedonic dimension of motivation to be cleaned and found that de-parasitized client fish (the butterflyfish <i>Chaetodon auriga</i>) preferred the compartment paired with cleaner fish (<i>Labroides dimidiatus</i>). Treatment with the μ-opioid receptor agonist The µ-opioid receptor agonist 2-Ala-4-mephe-5-gly-enkephalin (DAMGO) dose-dependently increased preference, while treatment with the antagonist naloxone decreased it. To test for fish incentive salience, we used a detour task, with barriers being added after each trial to demand higher response strength to reach the target and found that client fish can circumvent barriers to reach a cleaner-adjacent compartment. Response strength (number of barriers added before 'giving up') was not affected by treatment with either naloxone or DAMGO. Our results show that cleaner-client interactions are hedonically positive for clients, an effect that is mediated by the opiodergic system. Visual contact with cleaners is sufficient to activate incentive salience programmes, but no evidence of participation of the opioidergic system in these programmes was found.

We overcame this barrier by using CRISPR-Cas9 in captive cane toads (<i>Rhinella marina</i>) to create gene-knockout albinos. Using this approach, we could evaluate direct effects of a single allele on fitness by comparing rates of survival, growth and development of albino versus pigmented siblings. Contrary to the prevailing view that albinism is rare solely due to reduced crypsis (increased vulnerability to predation), we found that albino tadpoles and terrestrial-phase toads were competitively inferior to their pigmented siblings even in the absence of predation. Visual impairment appears to explain this cost in the terrestrial life-stage, as albino toads had lower foraging success, were less accurate when striking at prey, and needed higher light levels to forage successfully.

Here, we describe the interaction intensity of plants with their mutualistic and antagonistic partners, as well as the selective landscapes in one natural and one urban site. We measured direct phenotypic selection on plant traits relevant to three interaction partners: floral tube length, resistance to herbivores and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization. Significant direct phenotypic selection on the three interaction traits was detected in the natural site. We observed disruptive selection on floral tube length, with the two fitness optima closely matching the proboscis peak lengths of the main pollinator species. In addition, we observed stabilizing selection by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, favouring plants with around 11% of arbuscular colonization. This result supports the idea that plants may autoregulate mean intraradical arbuscular colonization to maximize fitness relative to carbon allocation to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Finally, we detected directional selection benefiting plants with high resistance to herbivores. Our results highlight the importance of adopting a multispecies, context-dependent approach to better understand the complex ecological interactions that drive plant evolution.</p>","PeriodicalId":520757,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.
