Research Abstract |
Central gustatory pathways were investigated in goldfish. It turned out that gustatory information(taste sense) reaches the telencephalon relayed by rhombencephalic and diencephalic centers. Also, direct ascending pathways of general visceral sense from the brain stem to the telencephalon were revealed in tilapia.
