ExploratoryADCY8wild peregrine falcon populationsproposed
A genomic study that resequenced 35 genomes from 4 peregrine falcon populations to identify genetic determinants of migratory behavior. The analysis focused on identifying genes associated with population-level differences in migratory distance. The study discovered that the gene ADCY8 (adenylyl cyclase 8) is significantly associated with variation in migratory distance among populations. This gene is involved in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling and has been previously implicated in learning and memory processes. The researchers investigated the regulatory mechanisms of ADCY8 and determined that long-term memory was the most likely selective agent driving divergence in this gene among peregrine populations.
