"The stressed bird in the hand": Influence of sampling design on the physiological stress response in a free-living songbird

N. Huber, K. Mahr, Z. Toth, Y. U. Cınar, E. Z. Szarka, P. Salmon, A. Z. Lendvai

This study tests how sampling design affects stress responses in free-living birds, finding no significant stress increase from additional blood sampling or handling.

Insulin-like growth factor 1 induces oxidative damage, but does not affect survival in a songbird

A. Z. Lendvai, Z. Toth, J. Penzes, S. Vogel-Kindgen, B. A. Gander, C. I. Vagasi

This study shows that IGF-1 increases oxidative damage but not survival in songbirds, with baseline IGF-1 levels correlating with survival.

Insulin-like growth factor 1 is related to the expression of plumage traits in a passerine species

K. Mahr, O. Vincze, Z. Toth, H. Hoi, A. Z. Z. Lendvai

The study examines the relationship between IGF-1 levels and plumage traits in bearded reedlings, finding IGF-1 predicts tail length and structural plumage in males but not melanin-based ornaments.

Exploring the mechanistic link between corticosterone and insulin-like growth factor-1 in a wild passerine bird

Z. Toth, J. Q. Ouyang, A. Z. Lendvai

This study shows that IGF-1 levels decrease during stress in wild birds, independent of corticosterone changes, suggesting the HPS axis operates autonomously in stress responses.
