Salient eyes deter conspecific nest intruders in wild jackdaws (Corvus monedula).
Animals often respond fearfully when encountering eyes or eye-like shapes. Although gaze aversion has been documented in mammals when avoiding group-member conflict, the importance of eye coloration during interactions between...
Identifying Microbiome-Mediated Behaviour in Wild Vertebrates.
Recent research in laboratory animals has illuminated how the vertebrate gut microbiome can have diverse and powerful effects on the brain and behaviour. However, the ecological relevance of this microbiome-gut-brain (MGB) axis...
Erratum
Knowledge about the causal relationship between objects has been studied extensively in human infants, and more recently in adult animals using differential looking time experiments. How knowledge about object support develops...
Rayleigh quotient iteration and simplified Jacobi-Davidson method with preconditioned iterative solves
We show that for the non-Hermitian eigenvalue problem simplified Jacobi-Davidson with preconditioned Galerkin-Krylov solves is equivalent to inexact Rayleigh quotient iteration where the preconditioner is altered by a simple...
The gut microbiome as a driver of individual variation in cognition and functional behaviour.
Research into proximate and ultimate mechanisms of individual cognitive variation in animal populations is a rapidly growing field that incorporates physiological, behavioural and evolutionary investigations. Recent studies in...

Repeatable aversion across threat types is linked with life-history traits but is dependent on how aversion is measured.
Personality research suggests that individual differences in risk aversion may be explained by links with life-history variation. However, few empirical studies examine whether repeatable differences in risk avoidance behaviour...
Multiple factors affect discrimination learning performance, but not between-individual variation, in wild mixed-species flocks of birds.

Cognition arguably drives most behaviours in animals, but whether and why individuals in the wild vary consistently in their cognitive performance is scarcely known, especially under mixed-species scenarios. One reason for this...

Cognition and covariance in the producer-scrounger game.
Michael S Reichert, Julie Morand-Ferron, Ipek G Kulahci, Josh A Firth, Gabrielle L Davidson, Sam J Crofts, John L Quinn
Sep 29, 2021
The producer-scrounger game is a key element of foraging ecology in many systems. Producing and scrounging typically covary negatively, but partitioning this covariance into contributions of individual plasticity and consistent...
A time-lagged association between the gut microbiome, nestling weight and nestling survival in wild great tits.

Natal body mass is a key predictor of viability and fitness in many animals. While variation in body mass and therefore juvenile viability may be explained by genetic and environmental factors, emerging evidence points to the...

Abstract: The microbial community in the gut is influenced by environmental factors, especially diet, which can moderate host behaviour through the microbiome-gut-brain axis. However, the ecological relevance of...

Elucidating the Role of Phospholipid Scramblase 1 in Antiviral Innate Immunity
Gabrielle Paniccia

Hosts possess an array of defenses against pathogens, some of which form a baseline protective barrier against infection. This baseline resistance, or intrinsic immunity, is the first layer of cellular defense that a virus must...

Perceived causes of mental illness and views on appropriate care pathways among Indonesians.
Background
The mental health system in Indonesia comprises attempts to modernise a colonial relic. There is still a disconnect between available services and help-seeking behaviours at the grassroots level. This study...
