Candling Analysis of Egg Development in an Endangered Bird Species Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using candling images from 98 eggs, we present the first detailed description of egg and embryonic development in the endangered crested ibis. We identify diagnostic features of nonviable eggs and reveal that embryo mortality is concentrated during mid‐incubation and shortly before hatching. These findings provide a standardized reference for assessing

Thermal effects of plumage coloration

Ibis, 2022
Plumage coloration can have substantial effects on a bird's energy budget. This is because different colours reflect and absorb light differently, affecting the heat loads acquired from solar radiation. We examine the thermal effects of feather coloration on solar heat gain and flight performance and discuss the potential role of plumage colour on a ...

New insights into genetics underlying of plumage color

Animal Genetics, 2021
SummaryPlumage color can be considered as a social signal in chickens and a breeding identification tool among breeders. The relationship between plumage color and trait groups of immunity, growth and fertility is still a controversial issue. This research aimed to determine the genome‐wide additive and epistatic variants affecting plumage color ...

Mechanism of carotenoid coloration in the brightly colored plumages of broadbills (Eurylaimidae)

Journal of Comparative Physiology B, 2014
The plumage carotenoids of six species from five genera of broadbills (Eurylaimidae) have been examined. These plumages are crimson, violet, purple-maroon, or yellow. Two genera also have brilliant green plumages that are produced by a combination of structural coloration and unknown carotenoids.
