Modulation of Avian Iridescence via Melanogenesis
This dataset contains the raw data underlying Figure 3 of the manuscript “Modulation of Avian Iridescence via Melanogenesis”. It includes longitudinal and cross-sectional TEM images of Area 3 (A3), angle-dependent reflectance spectra acquired from A3, structural parameters extracted from TEM images across all investigated feather regions (A1-A6), light-microscopy images of barbules from A1-A6, and microspectroscopic measurements for the peacock mutants investigated in the study.
