    Summary

    Integrative animal behaviour research merges neuroscience and ecology. Molecular genetic analyses of natural behaviours can advance the study of social behaviour and sociogenomics.

    Science (New York, N.Y.)·2001

    Area of Science:

    • Animal Behaviour
    • Behavioural Ecology
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • An emerging trend in animal behaviour research involves integrating different scientific approaches.
    • Behavioural ecology is increasingly incorporating mechanistic analyses within ecological contexts.
    • Molecular genetic analyses offer a powerful tool for studying behaviour in natural settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the growing integration in animal behaviour studies.
    • To propose molecular genetic analyses as a catalyst for this synthesis.
    • To lay the groundwork for a research agenda in sociogenomics.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of recent findings in behavioural ecology and neuroscience.
    • Focus on molecular genetic analyses of behaviours in natural contexts.
    • Conceptual framework for integrating mechanistic and ecological approaches.

    Main Results:

    • The field of animal behaviour is moving towards a more integrative approach.
    • Molecular genetics provides a means to link behaviour to its underlying mechanisms in natural environments.
    • This integration is crucial for advancing the study of social behaviour.

    Conclusions:

    • A synthesis between behavioural neuroscience and behavioural ecology is underway.
    • Molecular genetic analyses are key to understanding the 'how' of behaviour in an ecological context.
    • This research can form the basis for the new field of sociogenomics.
