On the maintenance of bird song dialects
Many bird species, especially song birds but also for instance some
hummingbirds and parrots, have noted dialects. By this we mean that locally a particular song is sung by the majority of the birds, but that neighbouring...
Variability in Singing and in Song in the Zebra Finch
Cameron Wellock
Jan 01, 0001
Variability is a defining feature of the oscine song learning process, reflected in song and in the neural pathways involved in song learning. For the zebra finch, juveniles learning to sing typically exhibit a high degree of...

Assessing the Phylogenetic and Cultural Content of Learned Song
Nicole Creanza
Jan 01, 0001
In the oscine songbirds, song is learned by a juvenile from a tutor of the same species, in a pattern that is analogous to human language, and likewise has the potential to change over time by cultural evolution. The...

JL Andruska
May 16, 2017
The use of the word דגל in the Song of Songs 5:10 has caused considerable confusion among commentators. Most occurrences of the word in the Song are thought to be related to an army or host carrying banners, except in 5:10...
Dominant male song performance reflects current immune state in a cooperatively breeding songbird.
Conspicuous displays are thought to have evolved as signals of individual "quality", though precisely what they encode remains a focus of debate. While high quality signals may be produced by high quality individuals due to...
Impact analysis of electricity supply unreliability to interdependent economic sectors by an economic-technical approach
This paper proposes a novel framework to quantify the economic impact of electricity supply interruptions to other economic sectors considering their interdependency and increasing penetration of wind power. It is achieved by a...
Vernacular Song and the Folkloric Imagination at the Fin de Siècle
Ross Cole
Jun 15, 2018
This article foregrounds discrepancies between vernacular singing in England and the work of London’s Folk-Song Society during the 1890s. Figures such as Lucy Broadwood, Kate Lee, and Hubert Parry acted as gatekeepers...

Seven non-differentially expressed 'dark biomarkers' show transcriptional dysregulation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Aim: Transcriptional regulation is actively involved in the onset and progression of various diseases. This study used the feature-engineering approach model-based quantitative transcription regulation to quantitatively measure...
EspF of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Enhances Apoptosis via Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Intestinal Epithelial Cells
There have been large foodborne outbreaks related to Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) around the world. Among its virulence proteins, the EspF encoded by locus of enterocyte effacement is one of the most known...
