Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 (HPAI/H5N1) Virus Search from Wild Birds in Ghana
Folia Veterinaria, 2019 Highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI) disease has occurred in many countries globally adversely affecting domestic poultry production. Ghana recorded her first outbreak of a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in 2007 on a small scale commercial ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding migration ecology is essential for effective conservation of migratory species. To achieve a comprehensive understanding of the ecology of migrating species, it is necessary to study how species react to the complex interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic conditions when optimizing their migratory journey in terms of survival ...

Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty maintained by viability costs, as proposed in Godfray's influential signalling model.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...
