Functional evolution of a bark beetle odorant receptor clade detecting monoterpenoids of different ecological origins
Xiaoqing Hou, Jothi Kumar Yuvaraj, Rebecca E. Roberts…·Martin N. Andersson
The paper functionally characterizes odorant receptors in bark beetles, revealing their specific responses to monoterpenoids from different ecological sources and suggesting neofunctionalization after gene duplication.
