Abstract:
:A field experiment was performed implanting female pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca) during the nest-building period with silastic tubes containing 17 beta-estradiol. Control females were given empty silastic tubes. The pied flycatcher is a polygamous and polyterritorial bird species. During two successive breeding seasons effects on reproductive behavior and the reproductive systems of males were studied. Reproductive success was not affected by the treatment. Estradiol treatment of females caused marked changes in the behavior of males, increasing aggressive and mate-guarding behavior. The results of the present study also support the idea that cuckoldry is a problem for the territory holder. Fewer males paired with estradiol-treated females established secondary territories, and significantly more of the polyterritorial males from the experimental population showed up in the home-territory when a simulated territorial intrusion was performed there. Control males were much more successful in getting a second female to breed. Spermatogenesis and hormonal cycles (DHT, LH, and testosterone) in males were not prolonged as a result of estradiol treatment of the females.
