An Investigation of Vocal Learning Propensity in Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata)

Year: 2018

Type: dissertation

Abstract: The investigator attempted to predict the vocal learning propensity from either family pedigree or early vocal babbling (subsong). Pedigree trees suggest the possibility that vocal learning ability may depend on family. We failed to predict vocal learning propensity from subsong, but suggested that subsong may influence vocal learning outcome.
