An attempt was made to analyse the pecking behaviour in pigeons induced by apomorphine. The pecking was completely suppressed by tranquillizers, barbiturates and cortisone. It was intensified by histamine, nicotine, lobeline, testosterone, progesterone and sodium taurocholate. None of the drugs tested could induce in pigeons pecking typical of apomorphine. Apomorphine induced pecking in other birds too. It was concluded that the pecking phenomenon after apomorphine is similar to the natural feeding movements performed by pigeons while eating grains and possibly it is the function of a specialized area in the limbic system of the brain which is stimulated by apomorphine.
人们尝试分析阿扑吗啡诱导鸽子的啄食行为。安定药、巴比妥类药物和可的松可完全抑制啄食。组胺、尼古丁、洛贝林、睾酮、孕酮和牛磺胆酸钠可加剧啄食。所测试的药物均不能在鸽子身上诱导出阿扑吗啡典型的啄食行为。阿扑吗啡也能诱导其他鸟类啄食。得出的结论是，阿扑吗啡后的啄食现象类似于鸽子吃谷物时的自然进食动作，并且这可能是大脑边缘系统中一个特殊区域的功能，该区域受到阿扑吗啡的刺激。
