Phylogeny of swallows (Aves: Hirundinidae) estimated from nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2005
The phylogeny of swallows was reconstructed by comparing segments of three genes, nuclear beta-fibrinogen intron 7 (betafib7), mitochondrial cytochrome b (cytb), and mitochondrial ND2, in a variety of combinations using maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods.

Comparative analysis reveals migratory swallows (Hirundinidae) have less pointed wings than residents [PDF]

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016
The correlation between migration and wing pointedness, a pattern generally attributed to the need to reduce drag during powered straight-line flight, is well established in avian ecomorphology. However, most studies investigating this pattern have focused on relatively rounded-wing taxa, which employ different flight modes during foraging and ...

Central place foraging by swallows (Hirundinidae): The question of load size

Animal Behaviour, 1982
Abstract Some predictions of Orians & Pearson's (1979) models for central place foragers (CPF) were tested with three species of swellows (Hirundinidae). House martins (Delichon urbica) and sand martins (Riparia riparia) brought larger food loads to the nest mainly when foraging distances were great, whereas swallows (Hirundo rustica) gathered ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of Red-rumped Swallow, Cecropis daurica (Passeriformes: Hirundinidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Cecropis daurica was determined by using a PCR-based method. The complete mitochondrial DNA of this swallow was 17,949 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and 2 control regions.

Comparative studies of fibrin polypeptide composition of two avian families: Sylvidae and Hirundinidae

Thrombosis Research, 1975
Abstract The polypeptide subunits of crosslinked and noncrosslinked fibrin of two bird families /Sylvidae, Hirundinidae/ of the same order /Passeriformes/ were examined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was found that α, β and γ polypeptide chains were usually visible on gel as single bands if fibrin was obtained from plasma of young birds ...
