Behavior
The chapter contains information about the selection forces that act on the behavior of fish (and other animals). Like all animals, fish are subject...

Behavior
In contrast to the large-scale oceanic migration between spawning grounds in the open ocean and continental habitats, eels exhibit sedentary behavior...

Effect of Hippocampal Overexpression of Dopamine Neurotrophic Factor (CDNF) on Behavior of Mice with Genetic Predisposition to Depressive-Like Behavior
AbstractCerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor (CDNF) is a promising agent for Parkinson’s disease treatment. However, its role in regulation of...

Characterizing the structure of mouse behavior using Motion Sequencing
Spontaneous mouse behavior is composed from repeatedly used modules of movement (e.g., rearing, running or grooming) that are flexibly placed into...

Optimal harvesting and stability of a predator–prey model for fish populations with schooling behavior
In this paper, the schooling behavior of prey fish population in a predator–prey interaction is investigated. By taking an economical interest which...

Learning single-cell perturbation responses using neural optimal transport
Understanding and predicting molecular responses in single cells upon chemical, genetic or mechanical perturbations is a core question in biology....
-
Breeding Behavior
A successful breeding episode requires individuals to locate suitable mates, produce young, and rear them to independence within a suitable...

Perch time allocation and feeding efficiency of flycatching Rhinolophus formosae: an optimal foraging behavior?
BackgroundFlycatching bats are species-rare and comprise predominantly horseshoe bats (Rhinolophidae). Their hang-and-wait foraging mode and long...

Fridge Compiler: Optimal Circuits from Molecular Inventories
Rationally designed molecular circuits describable by well-mixed chemical reaction kinetics can realize arbitrary Boolean function computation yet...
-
Predicting creative behavior using resting-state electroencephalography
Neuroscience research has shown that specific brain patterns can relate to creativity during multiple tasks but also at rest. Nevertheless, the...

Optimal fissioning strategies of social insects with respect to colony dynamics and nest founding probability
Social insects demonstrate two fundamentally different modes of reproduction, independent colony foundation (ICF) by single fertilized queens or...

Dietary restriction modulates ultradian rhythms and autocorrelation properties in mice behavior
Animal behavior emerges from integration of many processes with different spatial and temporal scales. Dynamical behavioral patterns, including daily...

Optimal distance to escape terrain of bharal in presence of livestock in Greater Himalayan alpine rangelands
Escape terrain is an integral component in species ecology for survival and predation avoidance, alongside other factors. For mountain ungulates,...

Assessing a standardized method to identify optimal baselines for trophic position estimation in stable isotope studies of stream ecosystems
Nitrogen stable isotope ratios (δ 15 N) are widely used to quantify trophic position in aquatic ecosystems. Comparing trophic position across space...
