Previous studies show that, in birds, pineal melatonin is important for circadian rhythmicity, and circadian rhythms mediate photoperiodic effects. The effect of pinealectomy or melatonin administration in photoperiodic induction of testicular growth is not found in many bird species. This is inconsistent with the fact that avian pineal is a self-sustained circadian biological clock and decodes both...
We investigated whether pineal is part of the circadian clock system which regulates circadian rhythms of activity and photosensitivity in the Indian weaver bird (Ploceus philippinus). Two experiments were performed. The first experiment examined the induction of testicular growth, and androgen-dependent beak pigmentation and luteinizing hormone (LH)-specific plumage coloration in pinealectomised...
