  1. Transcripts of these candidate genes, upregulated in reproductive SE, were also more abundant in vocal regions of the CNS of reproductive type I males [22]. Some transcripts were upregulated throughout the hindbrain and VMN (H/VMN), some were upregulated only in the VMN (VMN), and others had increased abundance restricted to VMN at night (Night VMN), the time of peak vocal activity
