The avian taste system: Potential implications in poultry nutrition

2013-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Taste has evolved largely as a mechanism to identify nutritious foods and is important for detecting nutritionally relevant carbohydrates, amino acids, lipids, salts and toxic compounds. Species differences in the taste system are intimately related to ecological niche and food availability. It has been argued that birds have a lower taste acuity compared to mammals due to their low taste bud numbers. In addition,...
