Vomeronasal chemoreception in vertebrates : a study of the second nose /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

The vomeronasal organ is an olfactory structure in the nose, originally described in 1813 by the Danish court veterinarian Ludwig Jacobson. After some 150 years interest in it was reawakened, following the discovery of its key role in social and sexual responses. The organ serves to alert the emotio...
