Flight muscle mitochondria are robust against endurance flight damage in blackpoll warblers Setophaga striata

Migratory birds are physiologically challenged by intense exercise while fasting during flights that may last hours to days. Exercise‐induced oxidative stress could compromise flight performance by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction in the flight muscle. Endurance flight is partially fuelled by the...
