Multiple pathways to red carotenoid coloration: House finches(Haemorhous mexicanus) do not use CYP2J19 to produce red plumage
Rebecca E. Koch, Christy N. Truong, Hannah R. Reeb…·Matthew B. Toomey
This study shows house finches do not use CYP2J19/BDH1L to produce red plumage, suggesting an alternative pathway for 3-OH-echinenone synthesis.

Captivity affects mitochondrial aerobic respiration and carotenoid metabolism in the house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus)
Rebecca E. Koch, Chidimma Okegbe, Chidambaram Ramanathan…·Yufeng Zhang
This study shows that captivity in cages reduces red carotenoid circulation and increases mitochondrial respiratory rates in house finches, supporting a link between carotenoid metabolism and mitochondrial function.
