Journal ArticleDOI
Boldness behavior and stress physiology in a novel urban environment suggest rapid correlated evolutionary adaptation
Jonathan W. Atwell,Gonçalo C. Cardoso,Danielle J. Whittaker,Danielle J. Whittaker,Samuel Campbell-Nelson,Kyle Robertson,Ellen D. Ketterson +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared elevation in corticosterone (CORT) in response to handling and flight initiation distances in birds from a recently established urban population in San Diego, California to birds from an ancestral wildland population in the species' ancestral montane breeding range.
Status reassessment of the gibbons: Results of the Asian Primate Red List Workshop 2006
Thomas Geissmann,Noviar Andayani,Bill Bleisch,Nguyen Manh Ha,Vincent Nijman,Ben Rawson,Matthew C. Richardson,Carl Traeholt,Joe Walston,Danielle J. Whittaker,Eric. Meijaard +10 more
TL;DR: The status of East Asian primate taxa was reassessed for the IUCN Red List at a workshop held from September 8 12, 2006, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia and the resulting new information on their taxonomy, geographic range, population size, major threats, conservation measures, and conservation status is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural Selection on Testosterone Production in a Wild Songbird Population
Joel W. McGlothlin,Danielle J. Whittaker,Sara E. Schrock,Nicole M. Gerlach,Jodie M. Jawor,Eric Snajdr,Ellen D. Ketterson +6 more
TL;DR: These data represent the most complete demonstration of natural selection on hormones via multiple fitness components, and they complement previous experiments to illuminate testosterone’s role in the evolution of life‐history trade‐offs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Songbird chemosignals: volatile compounds in preen gland secretions vary among individuals, sexes, and populations.
Danielle J. Whittaker,Helena A. Soini,Jonathan W. Atwell,Craig Hollars,Milos V. Novotny,Ellen D. Ketterson +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that songbird preen oil odors have the potential to function as chemosignals associated with mate recognition or reproductive isolation as well as significant sex and population differences in volatile profiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraspecific preen oil odor preferences in dark-eyed juncos (Junco hyemalis)
Danielle J. Whittaker,Danielle J. Whittaker,Kaitlin M. Richmond,Allison K. Miller,Ryan P. Kiley,Christine M. Bergeon Burns,Jonathan W. Atwell,Ellen D. Ketterson +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that songbirds are able to detect odors from preen oil as shown by their ability to distinguish odors arising from males and females and may also be able to distinguish among individuals of varying body size.
