Bitter taste perception in BaYaka hunter-gatherers

2021-11-29

Abstract excerpt

Aversion towards bitter tastes evolved across vertebrate species to enable the recognition of harmful plant toxins. Most studies to date have investigated the variation in bitter taste sensitivity between human populations. However, there is a lack of research investigating phenotypic plasticity and the variation in bitter taste perception within the same population. Here we examined bitter taste perception among...
