Abstract
Fungiform papillae in the frog tongue contained chemoreceptors which responded phasically to quinine hydrochloride. The reflex discharge of the hypoglossal nerve on chemical stimulation of the tongue may originate from the excitation of these chemoreceptors.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
