• Antibiotic-Producing Bacteria as a Possible Defence of Birds against Pathogenic Microorganisms (2010, background): “The environment of incubated eggs, with higher temperature and lower humidity than that of non-incubated eggs, might directly prevent pathogen invasion [71, 73].”
• Unhatched eggs: methods for discriminating between infertility and early embryo mortality (2008, background): “…exposure of eggs to variable temperature, humidity and microbial infection prior to the onset of full incubation (Meijerhof 1992, Cook et al. 2003, Beissinger et al. 2005, Cook et al. 2005), poor female condition or genetic incompatibility between the male and female, such as that resulting from…”
