Extended Data Figure 3. Quantification of taste ganglion responses.

a–d, Rank-ordered plot of calcium transient amplitudes for various singly-tuned ganglion neurons (see text and Figure 3). For each cell, the mean response amplitudes for preferred stimulus (red) and the mean amplitude of its “next-strongest” tastant response (grey) are shown; minor dots indicate individual trial amplitudes. e, Quantification of mean response amplitudes in singly-tuned salt ganglion neurons before and after amiloride treatment (10 μM, n = 23 cells; paired t-test, P < 0.001). f, Quantification of mean response amplitudes in singly-tuned bitter cells before and after AITC treatment¹⁷ (3 mM, n = 63 cells; paired t-test, P < 0.001).
