文摘
- •
Single-cell recordings from antennal sensory neurons of Ischnura elegans are shown.
- •
Olfactory sensory neurons strongly inhibited by CO2 were identified in this species.
- •
These neurons responding to CO2 are also excited by amines and inhibited by acids.
- •
Further investigations are needed to assign a biological role to these Odonata sensory neurons.
