• DOES TESTOSTERONE AFFECT THE TRADE-OFF BETWEEN INVESTMENT IN SEXUAL/TERRITORIAL BEHAVIOUR AND PARENTAL CARE IN MALE GREAT TITS? (2000, background): “Briefly, T is involved in basic reproductive physiology and morphology, as well as in the expression of secondary sexual structures and behaviours that aid to obtain and maintain a territory or a mate (Nelson, 1995).”
• Testosterone upregulates lipoprotein status to control sexual attractiveness in a colorful songbird (2006, background): “In addition, regarding the relationship between cholesterol and T, it is important to note that cholesterol serves as the substrate for the production of steroid hormones like T (Nelson 2000).”
• Testosterone and sexual signalling in male house sparrows (Passer domesticus) (2001, background): “This corresponds to the beginning of the breeding period when T is at its highest levels in birds ( Nelson 1995 ).”
• Timing of reproduction in a Darwin's finch: temporal opportunism under spatial constraints (2004, background): “... all three populations gonad development was only initiated after substantial rainfall (Fig. 2). Increases in plasma LH concentrations of small ground finches usually preceded changes in gonad sizes and occurred at lower rainfall (Fig. 3). The latter is not surprising as hormones can change withi”
• Social environment affects female and egg testosterone levels in the house sparrow (Passer domesticus) (2003, unknown): “Environmental factors are known to modulate the production of steroid hormones in birds ( Nelson 1995 ).”
• How and why the winner effect forms: influences of contest environment and species differences (2010, result): “Because Cort is often associated with increased stress (Nelson 2000), our data are consistent with the hypothesis that, at least in male California mice, aggressive encounters in a variety of contexts do not dramatically elevate physiological measures of stress.”
