Aditya Ghoshal’s manuscript (‘Temporal patterns and sex differences in dyadic interactions in a wild zebrafish population’) has recently got accepted for publication in the journal ‘Behavioural Processes’.

The work investigates the diurnal changes in behavioural interactions of male-female (dyadic) pairs of zebrafish. The results revealed a distinct gradient in mating and non-mating related behaviours across time. There was also a temporal pattern in sexual dimorphism of behaviours elicited across time. Our results throw light on the complex dynamics of male-female interactions in wild zebrafish and can have implications in designing experiments involving behavioral testing of zebrafish.
