Genetic signatures for enhanced olfaction in the African mole-rats.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Stathopoulos Sofia, Bishop Jacqueline M, O'Ryan Colleen

Abstract excerpt

The Olfactory Receptor (OR) superfamily, the largest in the vertebrate genome, is responsible for vertebrate olfaction and is traditionally subdivided into 17 OR families. Recent studies characterising whole-OR subgenomes revealed a 'birth and death' model of evolution for a range of species, how...
