Pseudogenes are common in the olfactory repertoire, a feature that may relate to its peculiar signalling system, based on an olfactory neuron that has to have a signalling neuron to allow its connection to the apparatus of perception.
Each subject participated in four sessions with two very common 'food-like' olfactory stimuli (peach and coffee-like odors) presented in randomized order unilaterally to the right and then the left nostril.
Pseudogenes are common to any olfactory repertoires [ 12, 13, 17– 17].
This result is partially consistent with an earlier hypothesis that a shift in peripheral olfaction between E. dilemma and E. viridissima might be driven by molecular divergence in OR genes [ 27], a common mechanism of olfactory diversification in insects [ 12, 64, 65].
She has forgotten to turn off a burner, a common enough mistake; the olfactory lapse is the puzzle.
Much less common symptoms include gustatory, olfactory, or auditory (oscillocusis) hallucinations [1] and higher mental function disorders, such as confusional states particularly seen in children [4], temporal lobe phenomena [5], agraphia [6], and alien hand [7].
Here, we complement our prior findings by examining if the olfactory cues common to female and male genital secretions relate to genome-wide relatedness within and, more importantly, between the sexes.
The gene family that governs the production of olfactory receptors is common to all vertebrates.
Thus, binge ethanol exposure resulted in neurodegeneration of a corticolimbic circuit with common excitatory inputs from the olfactory bulb and was associated with perseverative responding on a spatial learning task.
Olfactory dysfunction is common in subjects with Parkinson's disease.
