Abstract excerpt

Recent advances in avian melanogenesis have pinpointed multiple genetic loci associated with color polymorphisms, predominantly in the plumage of chickens, quails, and pigeons. However, the genetic basis of melaninization in parrot plumage remains elusive. Previously, we showed that mutations in the melanosomal ion-transporter SLC45A2 lead to a complete loss of blue structural color in green parrot feathers,...
