Abstract
Editorial: Scents that Matter-from Olfactory Stimuli to Genes, Behaviors and Beyond.
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Systems Biology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience
Mammals can recognize a large variety of scents that give information about the environment, conspecifics, and other species
A lot of current research addresses the questions about which molecules activate which olfactory receptors and which molecular cascades are modulated by these receptors, or how the different olfactory receptors and the two olfactory systems work together
Summary
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Systems Biology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience. The present research topic is focused on “scents that matter,” i.e., scents that indicate stimuli which are crucial for the survival of an organism. Besides the detection mechanisms of relevant scents, many studies are focusing on the behavioral changes induced by these scents.
