Migrating songbirds on stopover prepare for, and recover from, oxidative challenges posed by long-distance flight
Managing oxidative stress is an important physiological function for all aerobic organisms, particularly during periods of prolonged high metabolic activity, such as long-distance migration across ecological barriers. However, no previous study has investigated the oxidative status of birds at diffe...
