Title :
Birds return every spring like clockwork, but where is the clock?
Yasuo S, Watanabe M, Okabayashi N, Ebihara S, Yoshimura T 2003 Circadian clock genes and photoperiodism: comprehensive analysis of clock gene expression in the mediobasal hypothalamus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and the pineal gland of Japanese quail under various light schedules.
