Effect of parasite egg size and quantity contrast of parasite-host eggs on recognition and rejection mode of Green-backed Tits by Xu Zhao, Ping Ye, Huaxiao Zhou, Canchao Yang

“…In the co-evolutionary system of avian brood parasitism, egg recognition and rejection are common and generally act as effective anti-parasitic adaptations by hosts. Accordingly, most studies have examined the role of parasite egg colors and markings in detection cues in hosts; however, studies focusing on the effects of egg size and quantity are relatively scarce and have mostly concentrated on the hosts of parasitic cowbirds. …”
