CRISPR/Cas 9-Mediated Mutations as a New Tool for Studying Taste in Honeybees.

abstract：:In this review we report data from freely breathing animals in an attempt to show how respiratory dynamics can influence bulbar and cortical activity. Relying on in vivo data as well as in vitro observations, we try to emphasize the multiple mechanisms that underlie this modulation, its multiple origins, and its possi...
