Conserved regulatory switches for the transition from natal down to juvenile feather in birds

Conserved regulatory switches for the transition from natal down to juvenile feather in birds

Abstract The transition from natal downs for heat conservation to juvenile feathers for simple flight is a remarkable environmental adaptation process in avian evolution. However, the underlying epigenetic mechanism for this primary feather transition is mostly unknown. Here we conducted time-ordere...
