1. 1. Cold-induced vasodilation in the brood patch of Zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata)

   Kandidat-uppsats, Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

   Författare :Sofia Klubb; [2010]
   Nyckelord :Brood patch; broody; cold-induced vasodilation; mechanism; non-broody; Zebra finch;

   Sammanfattning : The development of the avian embryo is dependent of heat provisioning from the parents. To increase the heat transfer to a cooled egg the Zebra finch females develop a brood patch. Mild cooling generally constricts the blood vessels but the Arterio-venous anastomoses (AVA) in the brood patch in birds dilate. LÄS MER

3. 2. The expression of thermoTRP channels in the brood patch of jungle fowl (Gallus gallus) during egg incubation

   Magister-uppsats, Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

   Författare :Shadi Jafari; [2009]
   Nyckelord :Brood patch; broody; jungle fowl; skin; thermoTRP;

   Sammanfattning :   The regulation of egg temperature requires the transfer of heat from the brood patch. Thus, the brood patch needs the presence of thermo receptors as well as an appropriate vasomotor response. During the incubation an exact detection of the egg’s temperature is essential. LÄS MER
