Changes in the Peripheral Chemosensory System Drive Adaptive Shifts in Food Preferences in Insects

A key challenge in understanding the evolution of animal behaviors is to identify cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie the evolution of adaptive traits and behaviors in polymorphic populations under local selection pressures. Despite recent advances in fish, mice, and insects, there are s...
