Phenotypic flexibility in the basal metabolic rate of laughing doves: responses to short-term thermal acclimation.

The Journal of experimental biology - 1 Jan 2007

McKechnie Andrew E, Chetty Kinesh, Lovegrove Barry G

Abstract excerpt

Many birds exhibit considerable phenotypic flexibility in maintenance energy requirements, and up- or downregulate basal metabolic rate (BMR) over time scales of days to weeks during thermal acclimation. However, the extent to which individual birds can reverse the direction of BMR adjustments over short time scales remains unknown. In this study, we examined metabolic responses to short-term thermal acclimation...
