Correlation between singing-driven induction of neural activity-dependent genes and song plasticity. a Correlation between the induction response of singing-driven Arc mRNA expression in song nuclei and vocal plasticity. Left and right columns: mean and CV of similarity between adjacent syllables (300 syllable sets), respectively. Orange triangles, purple circles, and orange circles represent birds with singing in first fall (n = 4), second spring (n = 6), and second fall (n = 6), respectively. b Heat maps showing correlation values in song nuclei between singing-driven expression of the seven activity-dependent IEGs and song plasticity. Left and right panels: mean and CV of similarity between adjacent syllables, respectively. Pearson’s correlation coefficient with Bonferroni correction
