Type Excerpt DOI
Functional "Regarding taste receptors, no intact genes had not been found in cetacean genomes except for TAS2R16 gene in common minke whale genome [7,8,13], and Feng et al. [12] suggested that several mysticetes possess an intact TAS2R16 gene based on sequencing of partial coding regions." 10.1186/s40851-014-0002-z
Timing of Loss "We sequenced complete coding regions of TAS2R16 and TAS2R67 genes in several cetartiodactyl species and confirmed that the last common ancestor of odontocetes and mysticetes possessed intact TAS2R16 and TAS2R67 sequences" 10.1186/s40851-014-0002-z
