Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation (2014)
Journal Article
Zhang, G., Li, C., Li, Q., Li, B., Larkin, D. M., & Lee, C. (2014). Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation. Science, 346(6215), 1311-1320. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1251385

Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance across many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian species representing all major extant clades. The avian genome is prin...
