Reduced olfactory acuity in recently flightless insects suggests rapid regressive evolution
BACKGROUND: Insects have exceptionally fast smelling capabilities, and some can track the temporal structure of odour plumes at rates above 100 Hz. It has been hypothesized that this fast smelling capability is an adaptation for flying. We test this hypothesis by comparing the olfactory acuity of sy...
