• Developmental stress impairs song complexity but not learning accuracy in non-domesticated zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata) (2007, methodology): “Domesticated female zebra finches prefer males with higher syllable rates (Clayton and Pröve 1989; Tomaszycki and Adkins-Regan 2005), and this may also hold for nondomesticated birds.”
• Female mate choice and songbird song repertoires (2009, unknown): “The manipulations achieved to date have been limited to muting and other comparatively gross disruptions of male singing (Smith 1979; McDonald 1989; Tomaszycki & Adkins-Regan 2005), and no method for more subtle manipulation has been successfully applied.”
