The field seeks to identify those with neurological and genetic predispositions for violent behavior and to hopefully engineer a treatment or prevention strategy (2,3). Mar 18, 2014 - Recent Advances in the Genetics of Vocal Learning Michael C. Condro Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Physiology Interdepartmental Program, University of California, Los Angeles Stephanie A. These include a The gregarious behavior of tent caterpillars probably adds to the potential for inbreeding in this species at low densities as well; larvae sometimes pupate in the tent and this possibly results in siblings mating. Of particular interest in this regard are populations that regularly fluctuate in density: cyclic species. Genetics: Analysis and Principles. Jul 17, 2012 - The same basic genetic principles that apply to any phenotype apply also to behavior, but it is more difficult to identify particular genes with particular behaviors than with physical traits. The geographic structure and genetic differentiation of populations are determined by demographic processes and dispersal [1]. To date, only a few groups of mammals have demonstrated a capacity for vocal learning. The most reliable assessment of an individual's genetic contribution to behavior is through the study of twins and half-siblings . An Introduction to Behavior Genetics. Vocal learning, which includes the ability to imitate sounds with one's voice, is a rare trait in the animal kingdom.
