Asymmetric architecture is non-random and repeatable in a bird's nests.
Curr Biol
May 2022
Research Group of Evolutionary Physiology, Max Planck Institute for Ornithology, Seewiesen 82319, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- Bilateral asymmetry, or differences between left and right sides, can arise from genetic, environmental, or random factors and is seen in various life forms, affecting traits like organ structure and behavior.
- There is a need to better understand how common and significant this asymmetry is in animal architecture, such as snail shells or bird nests.
- This study specifically investigates the left-right asymmetry in the nests of the rufous hornero bird using citizen science to explore potential evolutionary mechanisms, suggesting that genetics may play a role.
