Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For many animals, olfaction is essential for survival. Olfactory perception begins when odor molecules in the environment bind to olfactory receptors (ORs). OR genes form the largest multigene family in mammals. In this study, we aimed to elucidate how genomes respond to environmental changes by using genomic data from various mammals and identifying orthologous gene groups to conduct a molecular evolutionary analysis. This analysis revealed OR genes that respond to specific environmental factors.
