摘要
Recent experiments in Drosophila demonstrate striking stereotypy in the neural architecture of the olfactory system. Functional imaging experiments in mammals and honeybees suggest a mechanism of odor coding that translates discrete patterns of activity in olfactory glomeruli into an odor image. Future experiments in Drosophila may permit a direct test of this odor-coding hypothesis.
