The study provides a comprehensive behavioral dataset of Drosophila melanogaster, categorized by genetic background, sex, and social context (isolated or in groups). Beyond enabling detailed analyses ...

Behavioral genetics and animal science -- Behavioral genetics and the process of animal domestication -- Fear and fearfulness in determining behavior -- Genetics and behavior during handling, ...

In a new study, Northwestern University neurobiologists discovered that gut bacteria and the nose work together to shape ...

The study of animal behaviour in ecological and evolutionary contexts examines how behavioural traits develop, persist and interact with environmental challenges. Research in this field investigates ...

Understanding biological relationships is often critical when studying animal populations. Researchers have now developed a transformative approach that identifies stretches of DNA that two ...

Is complex social behaviour genetically determined? Yes, as a team of biologists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) together with colleagues from Bochum and Paris discovered while ...

Animal behaviour encompasses a vast spectrum of actions and reactions by organisms as they interact with their environment and each other. Drawing on insights from classical ethology, behavioural ...

Animals that adapt behaviorally may evolve physically more slowly, showing resilience rather than weakness in changing ...

A new study has used mathematical modeling to identify the early warning signs of genetic collapse in animal populations.

Evolutionary approach to animal behavior -- Diversity of behavior -- Genetics of behavior -- Development of behavior -- Nerve cells and behavior -- Organization of behavior -- Evolution of behavior: ...

These insights could inform research into animal behaviour and, potentially, how microbe-produced odours might change ...
