The Australian zebra finch is used worldwide in several research fields (e.g. neurobiology, physiology, behaviour, ecology and evolution) as individuals are easy to maintain and breed in captivity. [12] Zebra finches are more social than many migratory birds, generally traveling in small bands and sometimes gathering in larger groups. [13]
Darwin's finches with different sized beaks that were suited for different seed types. Another example of directional selection is the beak size in a specific population of finches. Darwin first observed this in the publication of his book, On the Origin of Species, and he details how the size of the finches beak differs based on environmental ...
The zebra finch genome was the second bird genome to be sequenced, in 2008, after that of the chicken. [32] The Australian zebra finch uses an acoustic signal to communicate to embryos. It gives an incubation call to its eggs when the weather is hot—above 26 °C (79 °F)—and when the end of their incubation period is near.

The description of a mode of biological inheritance consists of three main categories: 1. Number of involved loci
In one experimental population of zebra finches, there was increased singing activity by the male after breeding. [9] This increase is positively correlated with the partner's reproductive investment. The female finches were bred in cages with two subsequent males that differed with varying amounts of song output.
A represents the dominant allele for color (yellow), while a represents the recessive allele (green). If each plant has the genotype RrAa , and since the alleles for shape and color genes are independent, then they can produce four types of gametes with all possible combinations: RA , Ra , rA , and ra .
