• Diet quality affects an attractive white plumage pattern in dark-eyed juncos (Junco hyemalis) (2007, background): “Pigment is incorporated into the keratin of the growing feather by melanocytes that extend their pseudopodia into the growing tube and release melanosomes (reviewed in Prum and Williamson 2002; Yu et al. 2004).”
• Corticosterone: effects on feather quality and deposition into feathers (2015, unknown): “At this stage, feather cells incorporate pigments and keratinize while building the fine structures (Lucas & Stettenheim 1972; Yu et al. 2004).”
