Chronic heat stress induces the expression of HSP genes in the retina of chickens (Gallus gallus) [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 Introduction: Chronic heat stress during summer is a major challenge imposed by global warming. Chickens are more sensitive to heat stress than mammals because they lack sweat glands.
