This study investigates long-term memory retention and adaptive forgetting in rosy-faced lovebirds through three experiments on memory persistence, reversal learning, and post-reversal forgetting.

This study examines how personality, sex, and learning influence the recombination of innovative behaviours in lovebirds during problem-solving tasks.

This study shows rosy-faced lovebirds can learn symbol associations and infer quantities, with performance varying by ratio range.

This study uses DNA metabarcoding to analyze the diets of sympatric duck species in a subtropical East Asian wetland, revealing dietary specialization and variation among species.

This study examines the dietary niches and fish consumption of three Myotis bat species in a subtropical East Asian region, revealing that M. pilosus consumes marine fish and that M. horsfieldii may also be piscivorous.

This study uses deep learning to show that rosy-faced lovebirds rely on visual cues, not olfactory cues, for foraging decisions in a binary choice experiment.

This study uses whole-genome resequencing to show that historic climate change shaped the population structure of American goldfinches, revealing genetic divergence and bottlenecks linked to glacial periods.

The study tests pet birds in Hong Kong for Chlamydia psittaci and finds a low prevalence with genotype A strains linked to mainland China strains.

This study tracks viral load changes in asymptomatic rosy-faced lovebirds infected with PBFDV, finding some individuals can clear the virus within three months.

The paper investigates the skin microbiome of Hong Kong newts, finding that environmental factors and host sex influence its composition, with core microbes potentially aiding resistance to chytridiomycosis.
