血浆催乳素与作物生长的关系孵化;沉思的;综述了哥形目动物对幼崽的摄食。在育种周期中，作物生长的变化与血浆催乳素的波动有很好的相似之处。催乳素在开始潜伏期中不起作用，尽管它可以维持反应。在繁殖末期，催乳素的下降先于孵化（不育卵）或孵化（幼崽）的下降，而外源性给药催乳素可以延长这种反应。没有证据表明催乳素分泌和父母喂养幼崽之间有必然的关系，因为这种行为可能先于繁殖期间激素的分泌并持续更长时间。
The relationship between plasma prolactin and: crop growth; incubation; brooding; and feeding young in Columbiformes is reviewed. There is a good parallel between changes in crop growth and plasma prolactin fluctuations during the breeding cycle. Prolactin does not play a role in the initiation of incubation, though it can maintain the response. Toward the end of breeding, a decline in prolactin precedes the decline in incubation (of infertile eggs) or brooding (of young), while exogenously administered prolactin can prolong the response. There is no evidence of a necessary relationship between prolactin secretion and parental feeding of young, as this behavior can precede and outlast the secretion of the hormone during breeding.
