Guipeun Kang, Corey A. H. Allard, Wendy A. Valencia-Montoya, Lena van Giesen,

Jeong Joo Kim, Peter B. Kilian, Xiaochen Bai, Nicholas W. Bellono& Ryan E. Hibbs.

Molecular Basis of Chemotactile Sensation in Octopus

Lena van Giesen, Peter B.Kilian, Corey A.H.Allard, Nicholas W.Bellono.

The peripherally distributed octopus nervous system exhibits exceptional signal filtering properties that are mediated by highly specialized, chemotactile sensory receptors that control touch-taste arm behavior.
