Effect of Repeated Gathering and Age on the Quality of Zatorska Goose Feathers
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2018 We investigated a reproductive flock of Zatorska geese. The birds were divided into four groups: three-year-old ganders (n=10), and one-, two-, and three-year-old layers (n=30).

Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1) Replication in Feathers of Domestic Waterfowl
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008 We examined feathers of domestic ducks and geese inoculated with 2 different avian influenza virus (H5N1) genotypes. Together with virus isolation from the skin, the detection of viral antigens and ultrastructural observation of the virions in the ...

Hydrogen‐Assisted Fracture of Iron‐Based Fe–Ni–Al Alloys
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Principal relations and fracture mechanisms of single‐phase and precipitate‐strengthened Fe–Ni–Al alloys subjected to prior electrochemical hydrogen charging are identified. The mechanisms of hydrogen effect on strength and microhardness are discussed, including hydrogen‐induced increase in microhardness and the role of hydrogen in fracture behavior ...

The first case of bilateral gynandromorphic plumage type in the bearded reedling Panurus biarmicus
The European Zoological Journal, 2023 Bilateral gynandromorphism is a condition in which an individual has both male and female phenotypes distributed symmetrically on the body. We describe the first case of a likely gynandromorphic bearded tit, which was trapped in Poland.
