[Telencephalic sources of the afferents of the main olfactory bulb in the frog Rana temporaria].
Following horseradish peroxidase iontophoretic application into the main olfactory bulb (MOB) retrograde neuronal labeling was examined in the telencephalon in the frog. Labeled neurons, the sources of the MOB afferents are found in the mitral cell layer of the contralateral MOB, pallial and some subpallial areas. Very heavy labeling is observed in the pars ventralis of the lateral pallium, and to a lesser extent in the medial pallium, pars dorsalis of the lateral pallium and in the dorsal pallium. In subpallium labeled neurons are found in the eminentia postolfactoria, the rostral part of the medial septal nucleus, and in the nucleus of the ventro-medial telencephalic wall, which is probably homologous to the nucleus of the diagonal band (Broca) of mammals. No labelled neurons were found in the caudal portion of the MOB granular layer, usually referred to as the anterior olfactory nucleus. The arrangement of the MOB centrifugal innervation in amphibians is discussed in comparison with that in mammals.
