Determinants of social proximity in Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica): Male behavior.

Abstract: Following opportunity to copulate with a female housed in an adjacent compartment, male Japanese quail spent 64% of their time near a window that provided visual access to the female (Experiment 1). This social proximity behavior persisted for at least 2 weeks of continual exposure to the window despite lack of further physical access to the female (Experiment 2) and was evident at all daylight hours (Experiment 3). Female Japanese quail stimulated more proximity behavior in male conspecifics than did other ma… Show more

“…It was first discovered by Domjan and colleagues [61,62] (see [64] for a review) that when a male copulates with a female for a single time in an arena there is a marked change in his behavior. After copulating with a female, the male will stand in front of a window that provides him with visual access to the female for most of the day while he was ignoring this window before copulation [61,62].…”

“…After copulating with a female, the male will stand in front of a window that provides him with visual access to the female for most of the day while he was ignoring this window before copulation [61,62]. This robust response, called learned social proximity response, is reliably produced in the laboratory, easily quantifiable and provides a useful way to investigate the neuroendocrine mechanisms regulating male appetitive sexual behavior [31].…”

“…In Japanese quail, appetitive sexual behavior (ASB) has been studied with the use of a variety of learning procedures developed by Domjan and his colleagues. [45][46][47] This behavior is testosterone-dependent, as demonstrated by the fact that low levels of circulating testosterone induced by exposing males to short photoperiods 39,76,83 or by surgical castration prevent the acquisition of the learned social proximity response commonly used to quantify ASB. 22,45 Moreover, males transferred from long days to short days will extinguish a previously acquired response.…”

“…Much is known both of the hormonal basis of their sexual behaviour (AdkinsRegan, 1995) and stimulus control of their mate selection (Domjan and Hall, 1986). Like guppies, mature quail will court and mate in the laboratory essentially whenever given an opportunity to do so.…”
