Asunto: Q&A: Animal behaviour: Magnetic-field perception
| Q&A: Animal behaviour: Magnetic-field perception Nature 464, 1140 (2010). doi:10.1038/4641140a Authors: Kenneth J.

The receptors for the magnetic sense remain elusive. But it seems that at least two underlying mechanisms exist — sometimes in the same organism. |
