• Why are bird migration dates shifting? A review of weather and climate effects on avian migratory phenology (2007, background): “The longer the moulting period, the better, potentially, the feather quality (Dawson et al. 2000, Hall & Fransson 2000) and, consequently, the better the sexual character phenotype (Serra et al. 2007).”
• A framework for the study of genetic variation in migratory behaviour (2006, unknown): “Whereas the first two will not be related to heritability of wing length, the third repeatability might be closer to heritability, although feather growth and wing-length are known to change with age and the timing of moult in some species (e.g. Jenni and Winkler 1994; Hall and Fransson 2000; PérezT”
