Meer oor hierdie e-boek

Smell Through Evolution explores the fascinating world of olfaction and its evolutionary journey, detailing how the sense of smell has shaped the lives of diverse species. The book examines the molecular mechanisms driving olfaction, the evolutionary pressures influencing olfactory systems, and the resulting ecological impacts.

Did you know a salmon uses its sense of smell to return to its birthplace, or that subtle changes in olfactory receptors can significantly impact an organism's survival?

The book uniquely integrates molecular, neurobiological, and ecological perspectives to provide a comprehensive understanding of how olfaction has evolved across different lineages, from insects to mammals. Chapters delve into pheromone detection, predator avoidance, and the extraordinary olfactory abilities of migratory animals.

By connecting genomics, neuroscience, and ecology, Smell Through Evolution highlights the profound impact of sensory systems on evolution and the intricate interplay between genes, environment, and behavior.
