Abstract: | Responses of secondary neurons of the carp olfactory bulb evoked by electrical stimulation of the olfactory tract were investigated by intracellular recording. In most neurons spike responses were identified as antidromic. Their latent periods varied from 2.5 to 55 msec. Two other types of responses of secondary neurons had constant latent periods: the pseudo-antidromic spike and a fast low-amplitude depolarization potential. It is concluded that these responses are generated by the antidromic spike of a neighboring neuron, connected electrotonically with the recorded neuron.M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University.
