Lack of Pattern Separation in Sensory Inputs to the Olfactory Bulb during Perceptual Learning. [PDF]
Recent studies revealed changes in odor representations in the olfactory bulb during active olfactory learning (Chu et al., 2016; Yamada et al., 2017).

Host seeking parasitic nematodes use specific odors to assess host resources. [PDF]
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are insect parasites used as biological control agents. Free-living infective juveniles (IJs) of EPNs employ host-seeking behaviors to locate suitable hosts for infection.

Bilateral and unilateral odor processing and odor perception [PDF]
AbstractImagine smelling a novel perfume with only one nostril and then smelling it again with the other nostril. Clearly, you can tell that it is the same perfume both times. This simple experiment demonstrates that odor information is shared across both hemispheres to enable perceptual unity.

Structures and functions of cilia during vertebrate embryo development
Abstract Cilia are hair‐like structures that project from the surface of cells. In vertebrates, most cells have an immotile primary cilium that mediates cell signaling, and some specialized cells assemble one or multiple cilia that are motile and beat synchronously to move fluids in one direction.

Stimulation of electro-olfactogram responses in the main olfactory epithelia by airflow depends on the type 3 adenylyl cyclase [PDF]
Cilia of olfactory sensory neurons are the primary sensory organelles for olfaction. The detection of odorants by the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) depends on coupling of odorant receptors to the type 3 adenylyl cyclase (AC3) in olfactory cilia.

Gas Chromatography Olfactometry (GC-O) for the (Semi)Quantitative Screening of Wine Aroma
This review discusses the different approaches developed by researchers in the last 40 years for the qualitative and semi-quantitative screening of odorants, with special emphasis in wine aroma profiling.

Research Progress on the Extraction and Identification of Key Components of Grain Odorants and Their Applications in Grain Storage [PDF]
The composition of grain odorants can be influenced by various factors, such as the type of grain, storage conditions, storage duration and pollution of harmful organisms.

Data-driven modeling of the olfactory neural codes and their dynamics in the insect antennal lobe [PDF]
Recordings from neurons in the insects' olfactory primary processing center, the antennal lobe (AL), reveal that the AL is able to process the input from chemical receptors into distinct neural activity patterns, called olfactory neural codes.

Alcohol‐free and low‐alcohol beers: Aroma chemistry and sensory characteristics
Abstract Alcohol‐free beers have gained popularity in the last few decades because they provide a healthier alternative to alcoholic beers and can be more widely consumed. Consumers are becoming more aware of the benefits of reducing their alcohol consumption, and this has increased the sales of nonalcoholic alternatives.
