Redundant neural circuits regulate olfactory masking

2021-04-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Olfactory masking is a complex olfactory response found in humans. However, the mechanisms whereby the presence of one odorant masks the sensory and behavioral responses elicited by another odorant are poorly understood. Here, we report that Caenorhabditis elegans displays olfactory masking and that the presence of a repulsive odorant, 2-nonanone, that signals threat strongly masks the attracti...
