Abstract
On the basis of our study, we suggest that sucrose and Na-cyclamate activate separate transduction pathways on the same chemosensory ‘sugar’ cell in the labellar sensilla of the blowfly P. terraenovae. Besides, the different effects exerted by the various modulators tested point to an involvement of Ca2+ in the transduction mechanism of both sucrose and Na-cyclamate.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
