Note Density patterns in the glomerular layer related to stimulation with amyl acetate (A.A.) odor at different concentrations. Patterns are plotted on a two-dimensional representation of the unfolded glomerular layer, oriented as shown in lower right (F). Numbers of sections shown on right from anterior to posterior; AOB: accessory olfactory bulb; LOT: lateral olfactory tract. A-D. Individual experiments at successively lower flow dilutions of 1:10, 1:100, 1:1000 and 1:100,000. Increased densities in the glomerular layer are indicated by enclosed areas. Left olfactory bulb: solid lines; right olfactory bulb: dashed lines. E. Summary map for glomerular layer densities in all experiments (n=21) with amyl acetate at all concentrations, for both right and left olfactry bulbs.
