- W1996539684 abstract "For birds breeding in temperate areas, territoriality and courtship co-occur during spring and are mirrored by elevated plasma levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone. By contrast, several tropical species show no major changes in LH and testosterone throughout the year and plasma levels are often low. This study describes changes in body condition, LH and testosterone levels throughout breeding in a tropical seabird, the magnificent frigatebird (Fregata magnificens). Although bi-parental care is the rule in frigatebirds, these seabirds are unique among seabirds in having a lek-like mating system where males perform an elaborate courtship display during which an extravagant sexual ornament (gular pouch) is inflated. Body condition peaked during the displaying stage in males and declined gradually in both sexes, being the lowest during chick-rearing. LH and testosterone titers were the highest in displaying males with a fully inflated gular pouch (means: 23.6 ng/ml for LH and 6.2 ng/ml for testosterone) and remained low (means: 3.8 ng/ml for LH and 0.3 ng/ml for testosterone) during incubation and chick-rearing in both sexes. Body condition was positively related to testosterone levels in displaying males. In male frigatebirds, high levels of testosterone are not associated with aggression but are probably required to display the inflated gular pouch and to perform an elaborate courtship display. Because males invest in incubation and chick-rearing, testosterone has to return to low levels, to permit parental care. This hormonal pattern differs greatly with that of the few tropical seabirds studied so far and is probably related to the unique reproductive strategy of frigatebirds." @default.
