The Corneal Structure of the Yellow-Legged Gull, Larus michahellis (Naumann, 1840). [PDF]
This study examines the cornea of Larus michahellis using light and electron microscopy, revealing essential structural details. The corneal epithelium is a nonkeratinized, stratified layer with microridges and microvilli that improve optical properties.

Multidirectional chromosome painting substantiates the occurrence of extensive genomic reshuffling within Accipitriformes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Previous cross-species painting studies with probes from chicken (Gallus gallus) chromosomes 1-10 and a paint pool of nineteen microchromosomes have revealed that the drastic karyotypic reorganization in Accipitridae is due to extensive ...

Embryonic exposure of chicken chicks (Gallus gallus domesticus) leads to heightened sensitivities towards the exposed scent [PDF]
In chickens, food consumption can be altered by exposing the chicks to scents as embryos. We exposed eggs to an orange-scented food additive in the final days of incubation. Following hatching, we tested these exposed chicks’ ability to detect this scent
