Molecular approaches and genetic manipulations have provided novel insights into the processing of pheromone-mediated information by the olfactory and vomeronasal systems of mammals. We will review and discuss the specific contribution of each of the two chemosensory systems that ensure specific behavioral responses to conspecific animals.
分子生物学方法和基因操作已经为哺乳动物嗅觉和犁鼻器系统处理信息素介导的信息过程提供了新的见解。我们将回顾并讨论这两个化学感应系统各自的具体作用,它们确保了对同种动物产生特定的行为反应。
