Time available for moulting shapes inter- and intra-specific variability in post-juvenile moult extent in wheatears (genus Oenanthe)
Moult is a vital and endogenously controlled process in the avian life. However, birds may modulate their feather renovation properties, such as the...

Seed dormancy and germination in Oenanthe stolonifera as affected by temperature and gibberellic acid
Our aim was to investigate the dormancy type of water dropwort seeds for develo** seed germination methods in the future. The mature fruit is a...

The oxidative balance and stopover departure decisions in a medium- and a long-distance migrant
BackgroundBirds have extremely elevated metabolic rates during migratory endurance flight and consequently can become physiologically exhausted. One...

Movements of Cyprus Wheatear Oenanthe cypriaca fledglings: evidence of a post-fledging home range away from the natal site prior to first migration
Dispersal to efficiently locate future breeding areas in young animals has important consequences for survival, life history and future breeding...

Stopover departure decisions in autumn are not associated with constitutive immune function in Northern Wheatears Oenanthe oenanthe
Stopover periods in between migratory flights determine the speed of migration and as such may affect birds’ fitness. The decision to leave a...

Multi-sensor geolocators unveil global and local movements in an Alpine-breeding long-distance migrant
BackgroundTo understand the ecology of long-distance migrant bird species, it is necessary to study their full annual cycle, including migratory...

Observations of infant conflict and avoidance in San Martin titi monkeys (Plecturocebus oenanthe)
Conflict between caregivers and infants typically centers on disagreements over the amount and frequency of care provided. Prior research has...

Migratory body mass increase in Northern Wheatears (Oenanthe oenanthe) is the accumulation of fat as proven by quantitative magnetic resonance
Migratory birds need energy-rich fuel which is primarily gained through fattening. However, it is also hypothesised that birds store excess lean mass...

Mongolian marmot burrow influences an occupancy of Isabelline wheatear
The physical modification of habitat by the rodents can create patches with altered species richness relative to adjacent, unmodified habitats. The...
