(Submitter supplied) As humans alter the landscape, wildlife have become increasingly dependent on anthropogenic resources, altering interactions between individuals and subsequently disease transmission dynamics. Further, nutritional quantity and quality greatly impact an individual host’s immune capacity and ability to mitigate damage caused by infectious disease. Thus, understanding the impact of dietary nutrition on immune function is critical for predicting disease severity and transmission as human activity both facilitates the dispersal of pathogens and alters dietary options for wildlife. more...

(Submitter supplied) In this data set, we compared the expression data of song nuclei HVC, visual cortex entopallium, and the molecular layer of the cerebellum dissected from females and males of 3 songbird species (S. canaria, U. cyanocephalus, P. bicolor) to identify sex-specific stimulated gene expression. Testosterone-treated male and female canaries were also included in order to study whether testosterone effect on transcriptomes is sex-specific. more...

(Submitter supplied) In this data set, we compare the expression data of the song nuclei from canaries treated with testosterone to untreated animals to identify gender specific stimulated gene expression. The gene expression profiles were compared to specie specific sexual dimorphic expressions.

(Submitter supplied) Within the overall project, we performed a set of microarrays to validate RNAseq data. In this data set, we compare the expression data of song nuclei to the optical tectrum dissected from adult canaries housed at long day cycles to identify nuclei specific genes.

(Submitter supplied) Vocal learning and neuronal replacement have been studied extensively in the songbird brain, but until recently, few molecular and genomic tools have been available for this work. Here we describe new molecular/genomic resources for songbird research. We made cDNA libraries from zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) brains at different developmental stages. A total of 11000 clones were sequenced from these libraries, representing 5870 unique gene transcripts. more...
