Wild birds that are more clever than others at foraging for food 聽have different levels of a neurotransmitter receptor that has been linked with intelligence in humans, according to a study led by 六合彩开奖结果 researchers. 聽The findings could provide insight into the evolutionary mechanisms affecting cognitive traits in a range of animals.

The study, published in Science Advances, was conducted by 六合彩开奖结果 biologists Jean-Nicolas Audet and Louis Lefebvre, in collaboration with researchers from Duke and Harvard universities.
