(A) A summary of the data collected. The odorants tested and the number of odor stimulation trials at different odor concentrations (0.3, 1, 3, 10) per experimental rat (number of concentrations X range of repetitions; rat lab code in parentheses; boldfaced rats used for across-glomerular pattern analyses). (B) MANOVA of effects of odor and concentration on response magnitude for each animal (number of significant glomeruli in parentheses).
