Building the case for a novel teleost model of non-breeding aggression and its neuroendocrine control
In vertebrates, aggression has been traditionally associated with high levels of circulating
androgens in breeding males. Nevertheless, the centrality of androgens as primary …

Passive and active electroreception during agonistic encounters in the weakly electric fish Gymnotus omarorum
Agonistic behaviour related to territorial defence is likely to be costly in terms of energy loss
and risk of injury. Hence information about the fighting ability of a potential opponent could …

Vasotocin increases dominance in the weakly electric fish Brachyhypopomus gauderio
Animals establish social hierarchies through agonistic behavior. The recognition of the own
and others social ranks is crucial for animals that live in groups to avoid costly constant …

Subsecond sensory modulation of serotonin levels in a primary sensory area and its relation to ongoing communication behavior in a weakly electric fish
Serotonergic neurons of the raphe nuclei of vertebrates project to most regions of the brain
and are known to significantly affect sensory processing. The subsecond dynamics of …
