Range and Absolute Odour Intensity Affect Olfactory Generalisation in the Honeybee

2013-07-01

Abstract excerpt

The human olfactory psychophysical literature is rich with anecdotal reports of variation in the perceived quality between weak and strong concentrations of the same odour (Wilson and Stevenson 2006). Psychophysical experiments using animals have also found similar effects of concentration on odour quality. The proboscis extension reflex (PER) is an appetitive Pavlovian conditioning assay that has been used to inv...
