Fiber connections of the hippocampal formation and septum and subdivisions of the hippocampal formation in the pigeon as revealed by tract tracing and kainic acid lesions
- Y. Atoji, J. M. Wild
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 26 July 2004
The organization of the pigeon hippocampal formation was examined by tract tracing by using biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) and cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) and by injections of kainic acid to… Expand
Organization of the avian “corticostriatal” projection system: A retrograde and anterograde pathway tracing study in pigeons

Birds have well‐developed basal ganglia within the telencephalon, including a striatum consisting of the medially located lobus parolfactorius (LPO) and the laterally located paleostriatum… Expand
Neural pathways for the control of birdsong production.
- J. M. Wild
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of neurobiology
- 5 November 1997
As in humans, song production in birds involves the intricate coordination of at least three major groups of muscles: namely, those of the syrinx, the respiratory apparatus, and the upper vocal… Expand
Magnetoreception and its trigeminal mediation in the homing pigeon
- C. V. Mora, M. Davison, J. M. Wild, M. Walker
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 25 November 2004
Two conflicting hypotheses compete to explain how a homing pigeon can return to its loft over great distances. One proposes the use of atmospheric odours and the other the Earth's magnetic field in… Expand
Avian brains and a new understanding of vertebrate brain evolution
- E. Jarvis, O. Güntürkün, +26 authors A. Butler
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Neuroscience
- 1 February 2005
We believe that names have a powerful influence on the experiments we do and the way in which we think. For this reason, and in the light of new evidence about the function and evolution of the… Expand

The compact division of the posterior pallial amygdala (PoAc) and lateral part of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTL) are components of the limbic system in the pigeon brain. In this… Expand
Intratelencephalic connections of the hippocampus in pigeons (Columba livia)
- Y. Atoji, J. M. Wild, Y. Yamamoto, Y. Suzuki

Behavioral experiments using ablation of the hippocampus are increasingly being used to address the hypothesis that the avian hippocampus plays a role in memory, as in mammals. However, the… Expand
Brainstem and Forebrain Contributions to the Generation of Learned Motor Behaviors for Song
- Robin C. Ashmore, J. M. Wild, M. Schmidt
- Psychology, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 14 September 2005
Brainstem nuclei have well established roles in generating nonlearned rhythmic behaviors or as output pathways for more complex, forebrain-generated behaviors. However, the role of the brainstem in… Expand
Functional Neuroanatomy of the Sensorimotor Control of Singing
