In bird couples, who is taking care of the kids?

Press/Media: ResearchAcademic

Description

Sex roles in birds describe sex differences in courtship, mate competition, social pair-bonds, and parental care. Different explanations have been put forward to explain these differences but none are based on a comprehensive study. Therefore, an international team of experts set out to analyze data on 1,800 of the approximately 9,000 different species of birds as their study organisms. The results show that adult sex ratios are the main driving force for differences in sex roles. A paper on this study was published in Ecology Letters on 25 February.

    DescriptionGeschlechtsrollen bei Vögeln beschreiben Geschlechtsunterschiede in Balz, Partnerkonkurrenz, sozialen Paarbindungen und elterlicher Fürsorge. Es wurden verschiedene Erklärungen vorgebracht, um diese Unterschiede zu erklären, aber keine basiert auf einer umfassenden Studie. Daher machte sich ein internationales Expertenteam daran, Daten von 1.800 der rund 9.000 verschiedenen Vogelarten als Studienorganismen zu analysieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass das Geschlechterverhältnis bei Erwachsenen die Hauptantriebskraft für Unterschiede in den Geschlechterrollen ist. Ein Artikel zu dieser Studie wurde in veröffentlicht Ökologische Briefe am 25. Februar.

    DescriptionLos roles sexuales en las aves describen las diferencias sexuales en el cortejo, la competencia de pareja, los lazos sociales de pareja y el cuidado de los padres. Se han presentado diferentes explicaciones para explicar estas diferencias, pero ninguna se basa en un estudio exhaustivo. Por lo tanto, un equipo internacional de expertos se dispuso a analizar datos sobre 1.800 de las aproximadamente 9.000 especies diferentes de aves como organismos de estudio. Los resultados muestran que las proporciones de sexo en adultos son la principal fuerza impulsora de las diferencias en los roles sexuales. Un artículo sobre este estudio fue publicado en Cartas de ecología el 25 de febrero.
