Molecular evolutionary genomics of birds.

Cytogenetic and genome research - 1 Jan 2007

Ellegren H

Abstract excerpt

Insight into the molecular evolution of birds has been offered by the steady accumulation of avian DNA sequence data, recently culminating in the first draft sequence of an avian genome, that of chicken. By studying avian molecular evolution we can learn about adaptations and phenotypic evolution in birds, and also gain an understanding of the similarities and differences between mammalian and avian genomes. In...
