“…Social challenges can induce rapid endocrine changes in insects (juvenile hormone : Kou et al, 2008;Tibbetts and Huang, 2010), fish (Oliveira et al, 2002;Pankhurst and Barnett, 1993;Ros et al, 2003), reptiles (Rubenstein and Wikelski, 2005), birds (Beletsky et al, 1992;Ferree et al, 2004;Smith et al, 2005; see above), and mammals (Buck and Barnes, 2003;Setchell et al, 2008) including humans (Fry et al, 2011;van der Meij et al, 2010). However, other studies found no influence of single or repeated social interactions on plasma androgens (birds: Addis et al, 2010;Gill et al, 2008;lizards: Klukowski et al, 1998;Thompson and Moore, 1992) whereas in the Great Tit, Parus major, and Blue Tit, Cyanistes caeruleus, plasma T decreased in response to STI Van Duyse et al, 2004;reviews: Goymann et al, 2007;Goymann, 2009).…”
