Coevolution of the olfactory organ and its receptor repertoire in ray-finned fishes

Coevolution of the olfactory organ and its receptor repertoire in ray-finned fishes

Abstract Background Ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) perceive their environment through a range of sensory modalities, including olfaction.
