From the ultrasonic to the infrared: molecular evolution and the sensory biology of bats

Great advances have been made recently in understanding the genetic basis of the sensory biology of bats. Research has focused on the molecular evolution of candidate sensory genes, genes with known functions (e.g. olfactory receptor genes) and genes identified from mutations associated with sensory...
