uses chemosensation to recognize a variety of odors, many of which are released by bacteria, the major food source of . Specific amphid sensory neurons are known to detect different odorants. Here we show that the AWC neuron detects the attractive odorant 1-butanol. Because few odorants that are specifically recognized by the AWC neuron have been identified, we hope that the identification of this additional odorant will facilitate studies of the role of the AWC neuron in odor detection and discrimination.
利用化学感应来识别多种气味，其中许多气味是由细菌释放的，而细菌是（此处原文缺失主体信息）的主要食物来源。已知特定的两性感觉神经元能检测不同的气味剂。在这里，我们表明AWC神经元能检测到有吸引力的气味剂1-丁醇。由于很少有被AWC神经元特异性识别的气味剂被鉴定出来，我们希望这种额外气味剂的鉴定将有助于研究AWC神经元在气味检测和辨别中的作用。
