“…These results are consistent with the findings of a recent study on homing pigeons, Columba livia, which did not find a difference in plasma haptoglobin concentration or levels of agglutination between birds that raced and those that did not (Matson et al, 2012). The magnitude and the duration of the change in body temperature in response to LPS injection can vary with a number of factors, such as age (Fraifeld and Kaplanski, 1998;Nebel et al, 2013), dose (Maloney and Gray, 1998), population (Adelman et al, 2010b;Adelman et al, 2010a) and season (Owen-Ashley and Wingfield, 2007).…”

“…For example, a study on red knots, Calidris canutus, found that induced humoral and cell-mediated responses were not affected by flight in a wind tunnel (Hasselquist et al, 2007). This highlights that the effects of flight on immune function -and vice versa -remain poorly understood (Matson et al, 2012).…”

“…Repeatability scores of our counts were highly significant (H/Ly ratio F 91,92 =8.28, P<0.01, intraclass correlation coefficient=0.78; Lessells and Boag, 1987). A high H/Ly ratio is often interpreted as a sign of physiological stress Lobato et al, 2005;Campbell and Ellis, 2007) and, for example, sustained flight has been shown to increase the H/Ly ratio (Matson et al, 2012).…”

“…Since standardized versions of both assays are routinely used and published by us and others (e.g., Mauck et al 2005;Palacios et al 2007;Buehler et al 2009;Cellier-Holzem et al 2010;van de Crommenacker et al 2010;Berzins et al 2011;Hegemann et al 2012;Horrocks et al 2012a;Matson et al 2012a), we provide only basic information here.…”

“…Haptoglobin is a heme-binding acutephase protein with multiple physiological functions (Quaye 2008), including preventing free heme from serving as a nutrient for infectious microorganisms (Eaton et al 1982). Compared to agglutination titers, haptoglobin concentrations are considerably more labile over short timescales (van de Crommenacker et al 2010;Matson et al 2012aMatson et al , 2012b. A growing body of research explores both indexes in the contexts of avian ecology (Hegemann et al 2012;Horrocks et al 2012b), life history (Palacios et al 2007;Versteegh et al 2012), and geography (Matson 2006;Horrocks et al 2012a).…”
