Figure 2.
Mean (±s.e.m.) glomerulus volume (µm3), normalized to average weight pup. (a,b) Mothers of ‘control’ pups ate standard flavour chow (light grey bars); mothers of treatment pups ate flavour-supplemented chow (dark grey bars) during gestation, nursing or both. Late nursing mothers ate flavour-supplemented chow for the last 10 days of nursing. Cross-sections of exemplary GFP-tagged glomeruli from each group appear below each bar. Note that there are more OSN axons entering the glomeruli in the treated than the control groups. The scale bar (20 µm) applies to all images.
