Odorant Receptors of the New Zealand Endemic Leafroller Moth Species Planotortrix octo and P. excessana
Published in PloS one (22-03-2016)“…Moths use their sense of smell to find food sources, mating partners and oviposition sites. For this they possess a family of odorant receptors (ORs). Some ORs…”
