Going belowground: burying anthropomorphic biases on gustation and olfaction [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Chemical signaling underpins behavioral interactions among organisms in the soil. Understanding chemical communication in the soil requires a paradigm shift in methodology and perspectives compared to aboveground ecosystems because olfaction and ...

Dietary diversity, sociality, and the evolution of ant gustation

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Ants have remarkably diverse diets and extraordinary species richness, making them an excellent model system to study the evolution of taste. In this entirely eusocial clade, food choice and the mechanisms that regulate feeding have both individual and ...

Olfaction and gustation abilities after a total laryngectomy

Radiology and Oncology, 2014
Background. A laryngectomy affects many of a patient’s functions. Besides speech and respiratory-tract problems, olfaction and gustation problems can also have an influence on the quality of life.

Interaction between Olfaction and Gustation by Using Synchrony Perception Task

i-Perception, 2011
It seems that interaction between olfaction (smell sensation) and gustation (taste sensation) will stronger than other interactions among five senses, although no one has ever confirmed psychophysically.

Systemic cobaltism manifesting as oral mucosal discoloration and metallic gustation after metal-on-metal hip resurfacing

Arthroplasty Today, 2018
Systemic cobaltism is a debilitating complication of metal-on-metal (MoM) arthroplasty. In this report, we review a case of a 54-year-old female with metallosis from a MoM hip resurfacing and varying degrees of black discoloration of her tongue and ...

Sensing Senses: Optical Biosensors to Study Gustation

Sensors, 2020
The five basic taste modalities, sweet, bitter, umami, salty and sour induce changes of Ca2+ levels, pH and/or membrane potential in taste cells of the tongue and/or in neurons that convey and decode gustatory signals to the brain.

Evolution of lateralized gustation in nematodes

eLife
Animals with small nervous systems have a limited number of sensory neurons that must encode information from a changing environment. This problem is particularly exacerbated in nematodes that populate a wide variety of distinct ecological niches but ...
