Repairable cascaded slide-lock system endows bird feathers with tear-resistance and superdurability
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018 Significance Bird feathers have aroused tremendous attention for their contributions to the unique flight capability of birds against wind and even through bushes. Many studies have attempted to explore the mechanism underlying feathers’ superdurability.

Morphometric characterisation of wing feathers of the barn owl and the pigeon [PDF]
, 2007 Background Owls are known for their silent flight. Even though there is some information available on the mechanisms that lead to a reduction of noise emission, neither the morphological basis, nor the biological mechanisms of the owl's silent flight are

Echinoderm‐Inspired Autonomy for Soft‐Legged Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Inspired by echinoderms, a modular soft robot achieves autonomous phototaxis without a central controller or explicit communication. Each limb independently adapts its actuation timing through local sensing and short‐term memory. Coordination emerges purely from physical interactions, demonstrating resilience to changes in morphology, environment, and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study firstly presents a comprehensive and high‐resolution pan‐3D genome resource in chicken. Our findings reveal the role of structural variations in 3D genome architectures, and how they influence the domestication process and production traits at the 3D genome level.
