Comparative Genomics Reveals Genetic Adaptations to Diving-Associated Foraging in Anseriformes. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe conducted a comparative genomic analysis of 25 Anseriformes species with diverse foraging strategies to uncover the genetic basis of diving adaptation. Diving waterfowl exhibited signatures of positive selection and functional enrichment in metabolic regulation, transmembrane transport, and neural processes essential for hypoxia tolerance.

Optimised PCR assays for detecting elusive waterfowl from environmental DNA [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionFor many aquatic and semiaquatic mammal, amphibian and fish species, environmental DNA (eDNA) methods are employed to detect species distribution and to monitor their presence, but eDNA is much less employed for avian species.

Fueling Incubation: Differential Use of Body Stores in Arctic and Temperate-breeding Barnacle Geese (Branta leucopsis) [PDF]
, 2010 We compared the use of body stores in breeding Barnacle Geese (Branta leucopsis) in traditional Arctic colonies in the Barents Sea with that in recently established temperate-zone breeding colonies in the Baltic Sea and North Sea by studying female body ...
