Whole-exome sequencing and genome-wide evolutionary analyses identify novel candidate genes associated with infrared perception in pit vipers

Pit vipers possess a unique thermal sensory system consisting of facial pits that allow them to detect minute temperature fluctuations within their environments. Biologists have long attempted to elucidate the genetic basis underlying the infrared perception of pit vipers. Early studies have shown t...
