Olfactory Sensilla and Olfactory Genes in the Parasitoid Wasp Trichogramma pretiosum Riley (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae). [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Trichogramma pretiosum Riley (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) is a tiny natural egg parasitoid of several agricultural pest insects, which has been widely used in the biological control for Plutella xylostella, Helicoverpa armigera, Spodoptera frugiperda

Update on the olfactory receptor (OR) gene superfamily [PDF]
Human Genomics, 2008 The olfactory receptor gene (OR) superfamily is the largest in the human genome. The superfamily contains 390 putatively functional genes and 465 pseudogenes arranged into 18 gene families and 300 subfamilies. Even members within the same subfamily are often located on different chromosomes.

The mouse olfactory receptor gene family [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 In mammals, odor detection in the nose is mediated by a diverse family of olfactory receptors (ORs), which are used combinatorially to detect different odorants and encode their identities. The OR family can be divided into subfamilies whose members are highly related and are likely to recognize structurally related odorants.

Organization and distribution of glomeruli in the bowhead whale olfactory bulb [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Although modern baleen whales (Mysticeti) retain a functional olfactory system that includes olfactory bulbs, cranial nerve I and olfactory receptor genes, their olfactory capabilities have been reduced to a great degree.

The human olfactory receptor gene family [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 Humans perceive an immense variety of chemicals as having distinct odors. Odor perception initiates in the nose, where odorants are detected by a large family of olfactory receptors (ORs). ORs have diverse protein sequences but can be assigned to subfamilies on the basis of sequence relationships.

The Evolution of Mammalian Olfactory Receptor Genes [PDF]
Genetics, 1997 We performed a comparative study of four subfamilies of olfactory receptor genes first identified in the dog to assess changes in the gene family during mammalian evolution, and to begin linking the dog genetic map to that of humans. The human subfamilies were localized to chromosomes 7, 11, and 19.

Convergent reduction of olfactory genes and olfactory bulb size in mammalian species at altitude. [PDF]
Curr BiolThe invasion of specialized ecological niches can cause drastic changes to selection regimes, resulting in genomic and phenotypic transformation.1 High-altitude habitats offer an excellent opportunity to investigate the genetic basis of local adaptation,2,3 as the repeated specialization of multiple lineages for high altitude has produced striking ...

Advances on olfactory receptor gene [PDF]
Hereditas (Beijing), 2010 The olfactory sense plays a key role in animals'life time. The main gene related with olfaction was olfactory receptor (OR) gene. This review introduced the structure, expression regulation, distribution, molecular evolution and polymorphism of OR gene. The relationship between OR gene and olfactory function and olfactory deficits was also discussed.

Antennal transcriptome analysis of the piercing moth Oraesia emarginata (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The piercing fruit moth Oraesia emarginata is an economically significant pest; however, our understanding of its olfactory mechanisms in infestation is limited.
