DNA methylation levels in candidate genes associated with chronological age in mammals are not conserved in a long-lived seabird
Most seabirds do not have any outward identifiers of their chronological age, so estimation of seabird population age structure generally requires expensive, long-term banding studies. We investigated the potential to use a molecular age biomarker to estimate age in short-tailed shearwaters (Ardenna...
