- Swainson’s thrushes in migratory disposition exhibit reduced immune function (2008, background): “2003; Muñoz and De la Fuente 2003) and lower concentrations of leukocytes, particularly lymphocytes (Owen and Moore 2006) during the migratory period compared to other periods of the annual cycle.”
- Disease ecology meets ecological immunology: understanding the links between organismal immunity and infection dynamics in natural populations (2011, background): “Owen & Moore (2006) explored seasonal variation in immunity in three species of thrushes and documented that migrating birds were significantly immunocompromised relative to conspecifics measured outside of the migratory season.”
- The use of leukocyte profiles to measure stress in vertebrates: a review for ecologists (2008, background): “For example, in passerines, H : L ratios increase in response to a wide variety of stressors, including long-distance migration (Owen & Moore 2006), transport (Parga, Pendl & Forbes 2001; Groombridge et al .”
