Whole-genome re-sequencing association study on body size traits at 10-weeks of age in Chinese indigenous geese

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
To investigate the genetic factors underlying marketed body size traits in Chinese local geese, we conducted a comprehensive study involving nine body size traits in 251 samples at 10 weeks of age from five local breeds: Taihu goose (TH), Sichuan goose ...

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

Ibis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Exploring the exploration: implications of leaving or remaining at the natal site during the early stages of independence in a partially migratory bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
Despite being an important fraction of any animal population, juveniles are a severely understudied group. Juveniles often need to learn an array of skills that allow them to survive independently and do so while undertaking decisions that may impact their fitness, recruitment and survival, having therefore relevant demographic implications.

Connectivity between breeding sites, wintering areas, and migration routes in Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) breeding in the Western Palaearctic

Ibis, EarlyView.
Detailed knowledge about bird migration patterns can enhance our understanding of the evolution of migration and temporal changes in space use throughout the annual cycle. Additionally, as many migratory bird species are experiencing population declines, understanding the connectivity between their spatial distributions during breeding, migration and ...
