research The transcriptional landscape of seasonal coat colour moult in the snowshoe hare

28 citations , May 2017 in “Molecular ecology”

Researchers found genes that control hair color and growth change before the visible coat color changes in snowshoe hares.

Function and Underlying Mechanisms of Seasonal Color Molting in Mammals and Birds: What Keeps Them Changing in a Warming World?

research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?

113 citations , March 2018 in “Biological reviews/Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society”

Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.

research Responses of hair follicle gene expression to the cold season and growth promotion technology in Angus and Brahman cattle

June 2026 in “Domestic Animal Endocrinology”

Angus cattle grow faster and are more feed-efficient than Brahman, especially with growth-promoting systems, and gene expression changes with cold and treatments.
