Animals have evolved numerous mechanisms to perceive and interact with the environment that can be translated into different sensory modalities. However, genomic phenotypic features support functions remain enigmatic for many invertebrates, such as bivalves, an ecologically economically important taxonomic group. No repertoire of genes has been characterized in representing a significant knowledge gap molluscan biology. Here, we gather multiple lines evidence explore specialized function bivalve tentacles common jingle shell, Anomia simplex. In addition applying microscopy techniques, performed transcriptome sequencing dissected using phylogenetically-informed annotation identify candidate receptors. Our results demonstrate expression GPCRs, including one opsin type, five small-molecule receptors, 11 chemosensory-related supporting involvement neurons organ, likely association ciliated receptor cells observed along tentacle surface. addition, identified seven ionotropic receptors putative chemosensory member Piezo mechanosensitive ion channel, which might involved touch sensation by provide first expressed starting point investigate chemosensation this class.
