Genetic Basis of Wooden Breast and White Striping in Commercial Broiler Chickens
, 2020 To gain insight into the genetic basis of wooden breast and white striping in broiler chickens, a genome-wide association study was conducted using a commercial crossbred broiler population (n = 1193).

Avaliação da ocorrência de White striping em frangos de corte das diferentes linhagens em faixas etárias distintas [PDF]
, 2016 A miopatia white striping é uma alteração no músculo Pectoralis major (que dá origem ao filé de peito) de frangos de corte e se caracteriza pela presença de estriações brancas paralelas à direção das fibras musculares.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

An AI‐Enabled All‐In‐One Visual, Proximity, and Tactile Perception Multimodal Sensor
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Targeting integrated multimodal perception of robots, an AI‐enabled all‐in‐one multimodal sensor is proposed. This sensor is capable of perceiving three types of modalities, including vision, proximity, and tactility. By toggling an ultraviolet light and adjusting the camera focus, it switches smoothly between multiple perceptual modalities, enabling ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.
