Abstract

The past decade has produced an explosion of new information on the development, neuroanatomy, and possible functions of the mushroom bodies. This review provides a concise, contemporary overview of the structure of the mushroom bodies. Two topics are highlighted: the volume plasticity of mushroom body neuropils evident in the brains of some adult insects and a possible essential role for the gamma lobe in olfactory memory.

摘要

在过去十年里，关于蕈形体的发育、神经解剖学及可能的功能，出现了大量新信息。本综述简要且全面地概述了蕈形体的结构。重点突出了两个主题：一些成年昆虫大脑中蕈形体神经纤维网明显的体积可塑性，以及γ叶在嗅觉记忆中可能的重要作用。
