Functional roles of Aves class-specific cis-regulatory elements on macroevolution of bird-specific features

The transition from non-avian dinosaurs to birds capable of powered flight represents a major evolutionary transition. Here the authors analyse 48 bird genomes and identify avian-specific highly conserved elements with roles in avian limb development.
