"One of the great benefits of working at a place like Church & Dwight," joked Ray Brown, director of research and development for home products at the company, "is that if you have good olfactory acuity then you may have the opportunity to smell cat feces twice a day".
If the proportion of intact OR genes is an indicator of olfactory ability, one would expect nocturnal birds with good olfactory abilities to encode a higher proportion of intact OR genes than related, but diurnal species.
Therefore, we hypothesized that nocturnal birds with good olfactory abilities have evolved (i) more OR genes and (ii) more intact OR genes than closely related and presumably less 'olfaction-dependent' day-active avian taxa.

Two of the members of this family share the same correlated mutational analysis patterns, a strong reason to suspect similarity of ligands [ 71] making family members good candidate olfactory receptors for methionine, valine, leucine and cysteine.
Therefore, we agree with Nei et al. [ 39] and doubt that the proportion of intact OR genes is a good indicator of olfactory abilities Previous studies showed that OR genes are distributed on different chromosomes and generally form genomic clusters in vertebrates [ 39, 67, 68].
Two natural endowments are necessary to a fine perfumer — good taste and an olfactory nerve suited to segregating not only kinds of odors but their qualities.
As the performance in this trap assay is a good reflect of the olfactory function [ 34], the result indicates that the lack of Est-6 in the antennae or the genital tract does not have a general effect on olfactory-driven behaviors in mutants.
But this year Google is poking fun of its Glass Project with some olfactory goodness.
"They've chosen some very good odors that stimulate the olfactory system effectively," Dr. Doty said.
Because comparatively few brain cells are devoted to processing odors, "there's good reason to think the olfactory system is affected very early on with these conditions," said Richard Doty, director of the University of Pennsylvania's Smell and Taste Center, who has done research comparing the Sniff Magnitude Test with other smell-assessment measures.
