This study shows that artificial selection in canaries leads to polygenic changes across sensory and motor systems, affecting song diversity and auditory traits.

This study identifies melanogenesis gene mutations that alter feather photonic nanostructures, causing iridescent color changes in peafowl and wild birds.

This paper resolves the genetic lineage of California bighorn sheep using high-throughput sequencing, confirming its distinctiveness and informing conservation strategies.

This paper reports the genome of Pavonine herpesvirus 1, a novel Mardivirus from peafowl, showing it lacks oncogenic genes found in Mareks disease virus.
