Exploration of tissue-specific gene expression patterns underlying timing of breeding in contrasting temperature environments in a song bird

Abstract Background Seasonal timing of breeding is a life history trait with major fitness consequences but the genetic basis of the physiological mechanism underlying it, and how gene expression is affected by date and temperature, is not well known. In order to study this, we measured patterns of...
