The Two Main Olfactory Receptor Families in Drosophila, ORs and IRs: A Comparative Approach
Most insect species rely on the detection of olfactory cues for critical behaviors for the survival of the species, e.g., finding food, suitable mates and appropriate egg-laying sites. Although insects show a diverse array of molecular receptors dedicated to the detection of sensory cues, two main t...
