It has long been recognised that animals perceive environmental information before they are born. This project will test for the first time whether such avian communication systems rely on vibrations. We will test the hypothesis that cryptic communication using rhythmic vibration, is essential for embryonic birds to sense parental cues regarding rising temperatures, by measuring neural control in adults, as well as embryonic perception and response. By experimentally manipulating family communication we will demonstrate the potential for prenatal vibrations to alter developmental outcomes, enriching our understanding of avian sensory development.These data are important for the commercial poultry industry and for captive breeding programs.

动物在出生前就能感知环境信息。该项目将首次测试这种鸟类通信系统是否依赖于振动。我们将测试的假设，即神秘的通信使用节奏振动，是必不可少的胚胎鸟感觉父母的线索，有关温度上升，通过测量成年人的神经控制，以及胚胎的感知和反应。通过实验操纵家庭沟通，我们将展示产前振动改变发育结果的潜力，丰富我们对鸟类感官发育的理解，这些数据对商业家禽业和圈养繁殖计划非常重要。
