A preliminary investigation into a genetic basis for cis-3-hexen-1-ol odour perception: A genome-wide association approach
2010-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Odour perception is controlled by environmental and genetic influences. Most people can discriminate over 10,000 different odours, but the molecular basis of this ability is poorly understood. Little is known about which odorant receptors (ORs) detect what odour compounds, and additional research is required to gain knowledge of why detection thresholds for some odorants vary 1000-fold, or more, across people. The...
