Achromatic plumage reflectance predicts reproductive success in male black-capped chickadees (2005, methodology): “Although they are socially monogamous, black-capped chickadees have a sexually promiscuous mating system whereby females obtain extrapair copulations from high-ranking neighbors (Mennill et al., 2004; Otter et al., 1998; Smith, 1988).”
Personality is associated with extrapair paternity in great tits, Parus major (2008, unknown): “In a study on black-capped chickadees, Poecile atricapillus, dominance was an indicator of extrapair mating potential (Mennill et al. 2004).”
Behavioural profile predicts dominance status in mountain chickadees, Poecile gambeli (2009, unknown): “Among parids, many of which live in dominance-structured flocks for at least part of the year (Ekman 1989), dominant individuals may benefit from greater access to food resources (Hogstad 1989), access to foraging locations that are safer from predators (Desrochers 1985; Ekman 1989), increased likel”
AIC model selection and multimodel inference in behavioral ecology: some background, observations, and comparisons (2011, background): “…likely in nests on territories with high food abundance Hoi-Leitner et al. 1999 Dominance status of male (X 5 ) EPY more likely in nests with low-status males Mennill et al. 2004 portion of males are not the genetic fathers of the chicks they raise each breeding bout (e.g., per season, per clutch).”
AVIAN HABITAT MANAGEMENT MEETS CONSPECIFIC ATTRACTION: IF YOU BUILD IT, WILL THEY COME? (2006, background): “Recent work with conspecifi c a raction has focused on the motivation of se ling in an aggregation to obtain extrapair copulations and fertilizations (Ramsay et al. 1999, Mennill et al. 2004, Tarof and Ratcliff e 2004).”
Personality predicts social dominance in female zebra finches, Taeniopygia guttata, in a feeding context. (2011, background): “2009), a character known to have a strong influence on fitness in socially living organisms (Ellis 1995; Koivula et al.1996;Mennill et al. 2004), and to be potentially influenced by personality in the wild (Dingemanse et al.”
