A larger brain confers a benefit in a spatial mate search learning task in male guppies.

Behavioral ecology : official journal of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology

Kotrschal A, Corral-Lopez A, Amcoff M, Kolm N.

Behav Ecol. 2015 Mar-Apr;26(2):527-532. doi: 10.1093/beheco/aru227. Epub 2014 Dec 24.

Brain size varies dramatically among vertebrates, and selection for increased cognitive abilities is thought to be the key force underlying the evolution of a large brain. Indeed, numerous comparative studies suggest positive relationships between cognitively demanding aspects of behavior...

Long-term exposure to elevated carbon dioxide does not alter activity levels of a coral reef fish in response to predator chemical cues.

Artificial mosaic brain evolution of relative telencephalon size improves inhibitory control abilities in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata).

Mosaic brain evolution, the change in the size of separate brain regions in response to selection on cognitive performance, is an important idea in the field of cognitive evolution. However, untill now, most of the data on how separate...

Fluctuating heat stress during development exposes reproductive costs and putative benefits.

Temperature and thermal variability are increasing worldwide, with well-known survival consequences. However, effects on other potentially more thermally sensitive reproductive traits are less understood, especially when considering thermal variation. Studying the consequences of male reproduction in the context of...
