And I’m not going to eat any more broccoli~6 s. G2 N5 I' F
New research points to a single gene as the reason the first president Bush would not allow broccoli’s aggression to stand. According to a report in the latest issue of Current Biology, a receptor molecule involved in tasting broccoli and its relatives comes in various forms. Some of us have the form of the receptor gene, the allele that makes the vegetables really unpalatable. But why? Well these particular vegetables also include chemical compounds called glucosinolates that can interfere with thyroid function. The paper notes that a billion people are still at risk for thyroid insufficiency and that creates strong evolutionary selection pressure for the ability to detect glucosinolates and minimize their intake. The paper ends by saying this study demonstrates the importance of individual human taste gene alleles for the perception of food and illustrates how possession of even a single allele of a bitter taste receptor gene may greatly impact how a subpopulation perceives an entire family of vegetables.

glucosinolates 和 gene allele怎么听出来的?大大有赏!! b5 T7 g; g" E$ J

我的确听得是broccoli啊...
( i8 C' z# y0 ^! M! E& ?0 e+ h1 H那个 glucosinolates 我上个学期刚学完英文有机，所以能猜出来大概拼写，化学命名的构词是有规律的，一听就是葡萄糖（glucose）+中间+ate（酯或盐的后缀）（一开始猜得是glucosinalates，然后上网查了一下）

错!考试的时候,如果听到有关生物学的段子,八成会有用.并不是说记住这个词,而是说有这个想法,起码听到了,大概知道范围,不会慌乱~~
