Effect of Vocal Nerve Section on Song and ZENK Protein Expression in Area X in Adult Male Zebra Finches

Table 1

Measurement of SD_min/SD_max and ISS_min/ISS_max before (pre-) and after (post-) right- and left-side vocal nerve section.

Parameters	Right		Left
	Pre-R	Post-R	Pre-L	Post-L
SDmin	47.7±5.83	88.4±12.49	52.96±11.89	66.48±22.7
SDmax	110.25±20.36	87.15±15.45	108.11±26.03	105.96±47.34
ISSmin	0	12.15±5.7	0	15.89±3.27
ISSmax	41.8±16.12	112.65±34.14	44.02±12.57	115.02±23.06

Each measurement is presented as mean ± SD (ms). Pre, control; SD_min/SD_max (ms) minimum/maximum duration of syllable; ISS_min/ISS_max (ms) minimum/maximum interval between syllables.
