Testosterone amplifies the negative valence of an agonistic gestural display by exploiting receiver perceptual bias

Nigel K. Anderson et al.

Summary: Animals communicate through elaborate displays, potentially due to innate sensory biases favoring certain display traits. Physiological factors like testosterone can influence display behaviors, making certain gestures more threatening, and interact with sensory biases to create an optimized evolutionary path for display exaggeration.

Androgen Receptor Modulates Multimodal Displays in the Bornean Rock Frog (Staurois parvus)

Sarah M. Smith et al.

Summary: Multimodal communication is common in the animal kingdom, but the mechanisms behind how animals coordinate different signals are poorly understood. Research has shown that blocking androgen receptors (ARs) can inhibit the production of visual signals, but has no effect on vocal signals. Therefore, activation of AR is not a physiological prerequisite for coordinating multiple signals.

A Common Endocrine Signature Marks the Convergent Evolution of an Elaborate Dance Display in Frogs

Nigel K. Anderson et al.

Summary: Unrelated species often evolve similar phenotypic solutions to the same environmental problem, a phenomenon known as convergent evolution. Research shows that the emergence of a rare gestural display in frogs is linked to changes in the androgen receptor expression in muscular tissues, while the complexity of the display does not predict differences in the abundance of androgen receptors.
