This study examines how Mycoplasma gallisepticum infection affects mitochondrial respiration in house finches, finding reduced respiration rates at different stages of infection.

This study shows house finches do not use CYP2J19/BDH1L to produce red plumage, suggesting an alternative pathway for 3-OH-echinenone synthesis.

The paper identifies a human-specific mutation linked to height and basal metabolic rate, showing its evolutionary timing and functional impact through dietary changes.
