[HTML][HTML] Birdsong: is it music to their ears?
SE Earp, DL Maney - Frontiers in evolutionary neuroscience, 2012 - frontiersin.org
Since the time of Darwin, biologists have wondered whether birdsong and music may serve
similar purposes or have the same evolutionary precursors. Most attempts to compare song …

Sexual signals of the Amazonian frog Allobates paleovarzensis: geographic variation and stereotypy of acoustic traits
Because of its close relationship with the process of evolutionary differentiation, it is
expected that geographic variability in acoustic sexual traits should be greater among than …

[HTML][HTML] Identification and characterization of an Egr ortholog as a neural immediate early gene in the European honeybee (Apis mellifera L.)
A Ugajin, T Kunieda, T Kubo - FEBS letters, 2013 - Elsevier
To date, there are only few reports of immediate early genes (IEGs) available in insects.
