We evaluated the influence of environmental factors on detection probability of ring‐necked pheasant broods surveyed during roadside surveys across 11 states. Wind speed, cloud cover, morning dew conditions, and soil moisture influenced detection probabilities and should be the focus of methodological or statistical control in future landscape‐scale ...

Positive selection underlies Faster-Z evolution of gene expression in birds. [PDF]
The elevated rate of evolution for genes on sex chromosomes compared to autosomes (Fast-X or Fast-Z evolution) can result either from positive selection in the heterogametic sex, or from non-adaptive consequences of reduced relative effective population ...

In the UK, large numbers of pheasants are released into woodlands for recreational hunting, potentially impacting local ecosystems. A survey across 20 sites in Ancient Semi‐Natural Woodlands found that negative effects—such as fewer seedlings, lower plant richness and reduced decayed wood—were mostly confined within 500 m of release pens. Soil nutrient
