Electrical activity and histological changes were studied in the degenerating olfactory epithelium of the bullfrog after the olfactory nerve had been sectioned. After nerve section, the electrical responses to odors disappeared in the olfactory epithelium in 8 days in the summer, in 11 days in the early autumn, and in 16 days in the early winter. In the degenerating olfactory epithelium a strik...
