Pan‐3D Genome Analysis Reveals the Roles of Structural Variation in Chicken Chromatin Architectures, Domestication and Production Traits

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Variation in Plumage Coloration of Northern Cardinals in Urbanizing Landscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Despite decades of study, biologists know relatively little of how one of the most important avian phenotypic signals, feather coloration, may be affected by anthropogenic disturbances resulting from urbanization.

Sex-specific phenotypic integration: Endocrine profiles, coloration, and behavior in fledgling boobies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The intensity of color expression in animals plays a key role in social environments as a mechanism to signal individual capacities in competitive contests. Selective pressures for resource competition differ at different stages of life and between sexes;

How colorful are birds? Evolution of the avian plumage color gamut [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral Ecology, 2011
The avian plumage color gamut is the complete range of plumage colors, as seen by birds themselves. We used a tetrahedral avian color stimulus space to estimate the avian plumage color gamut from a taxonomically diverse sample of 965 plumage patches from 111 avian species. Our sample represented all known types of plumage coloration mechanisms.

Genetic Control of Tissue Remodeling by a Non‐Coding SNP in ITGA8 Explains Carotenoid‐Based Color Polymorphism in Marine Mollusks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Inheritance of plumage colour in Japanese quails

open access: yesIndian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2016
A complete 4 × 4 diallel cross involving 4 quail populations, 2 of which possessed Pharao, plumage and other 2, White breasted and White plumage pattern was performed and the plumage colour of progeny in different crosses was recorded.

The color of greater flamingo feathers fades when no cosmetics are applied

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Greater flamingos use cosmetic coloration by spreading uropygial secretions pigmented with carotenoids over their feathers, which makes the plumage redder.

High‐Brightness, Wide‐Gamut, and High‐Resolution Structural Colors via Ultrafast Laser Oxidation of Ti/TiO2 Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ultrafast laser writing on titanium (Ti)–titanium dioxide (TiO2)–Ti sandwich films triggers controllable oxidation (〉200 nm) to create vivid, durable structural colors. The colors reach 〉 80% of the standard RGB (sRGB) gamut, up to 60% peak reflectance, and 30,000 dots per inch (DPI) resolution for art and anti‐counterfeiting.

Plumage Color Influence on Immune Response and Severity of Fowlpox in The Progeny of Inbred Isa White Chickens

open access: yesJournal of Applied Veterinary Sciences, 2021
There is limited information regarding chicken's inter and intra-breed resistance to the fowlpox virus (FWPV). Incidentally, it was observed during a natural fowlpox outbreak in a flock of inbred Isa White chickens having different plumage colors that ...
