Abstract excerpt

The odorant-binding protein (OBP) functions in chemosensation in insects. Two OBP genes, Obp57d and Obp57e, are involved in the evolution of the unique host-plant preference in Drosophila sechellia. Comparative analysis of the Obp57d/e genomic sequences in the Drosophila melanogaster species group has revealed that the rapid evolution of Obp57d and Obp57e has resulted in functional divergence between the two...
