Background: Climate change and anthropogenic activities are accelerating environmental changes, challenging wild animals' survival. Behavioral plasticity, such as adjusting habitat selection and foraging activity, is a ke...
AmelOBP4: an antenna-specific odor-binding protein gene required for olfactory behavior in the honey bee (Apis mellifera) [0.03%]
AMELOBP4:一种天线特异性气味结合蛋白基因 对意蜂(Apis mellifera)嗅觉行为是必需的
Fang Liu,Yu Lai,Lixian Wu et al.
Fang Liu et al.
Background: Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) initiate the process of odorant perception. Numerous investigations have demonstrated that OBPs bind a broad variety of chemicals and are more likely to carry pheromones or odor...
