Low hatching success in the critically endangered kakapo (Strigops habroptilus) is driven by early embryo mortality not infertility

J. L. Savage, J. M. S. Crane, Kakapo Recovery Team, N. Hemmings

The study identifies early embryo mortality, not infertility, as the main cause of low hatching success in kakapo, using data on fertilization and artificial insemination.

Ecology, phylogeny, and the evolution of developmental duration in birds

C. R. Cooney, C. Sheard, A. D. Clark, S. D. Healy, A. Liker, S. E. Street, C. A. Troisi, G. H. Thomas, T. Szekely, N. Hemmings, A. E. Wright

This study investigates the factors influencing developmental duration in birds using phylogenetic and ecological data, finding that body size, ecology, and evolutionary history explain most of the variation.

Sperm gatekeeping: 3D imaging reveals a constricted entrance to zebra finch sperm storage tubules

T. Mendonca, A. J. Cadby, N. Hemmings

The paper uses 3D imaging to reveal gate-like constrictions in zebra finch sperm storage tubules, suggesting active sperm selection by females.
