Conditioned taste aversion in the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus
Conditioned taste aversion (CTA) is a form of classical conditioning in which animals associate the taste of a food with illness caused by toxin contained in the food.

A functional fatty acid taste receptor, GPR120, is present in chicken oral tissues, and chickens show a preference for lipid in feed. However, it remains unclear whether chickens can detect fatty acids.

Novel approaches to the study of viscosity discrimination in rodents
Texture has enormous effects on food preferences. The materials used to study texture discrimination also have tastes that experimental animal can detect; therefore, such studies must be designed to exclude taste differences.

Conditioned Taste Aversion as a Tool for Mitigating Human-Wildlife Conflicts
Modern wildlife management has dual mandates to reduce human-wildlife conflict (HWC) for burgeoning populations of people while supporting conservation of biodiversity and the ecosystem functions it affords. These opposing goals can sometimes be achieved

Enhanced extinction of aversive memories by high-frequency stimulation of the rat infralimbic cortex. [PDF]
Electrical stimulation of the rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), including the infralimbic cortex (IL), immediately prior to or during fear extinction training facilitates extinction memory. Here we examined the effects of high-frequency stimulation

Learning through the taste system
Taste is the final arbiter of which chemicals from the environment will be admitted to the body. The action of swallowing a substance leads to a physiological consequence of which the taste system should be informed.

Another Example of Conditioned Taste Aversion: Case of Snails
Conditioned taste aversion (CTA) in mammals has several specific characteristics: (1) emergence of a negative symptom in subjects due to selective association with a taste-related stimulus, (2) robust long-term memory that is resistant to extinction ...

Long-range projection neurons in the taste circuit of Drosophila
Taste compounds elicit innate feeding behaviors and act as rewards or punishments to entrain other cues. The neural pathways by which taste compounds influence innate and learned behaviors have not been resolved.

Brain mechanisms of flavor learning
Once the flavor of the ingested food (conditioned stimulus, CS) is associated with a preferable (e.g., good taste or nutritive satisfaction) or aversive (e.g., malaise with displeasure) signal (unconditioned stimulus, US), animals react to its subsequent
