DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abb5447
Abstract: Tibetan antelope have adapted to high-altitude hypoxia via juvenilization of blood properties. Developmental shifts in stage-specific gene expression can provide a ready mechanism of phenotypic change by altering the rate or timing of ontogenetic events.… read more here.
