Central/Tertiary structures The fish olfactory bulb is a fourlayered structure much as in higher vertebrates. Within the 2nd layer, the first synapse for olfactory input is on the dendrites of the mitral cells (MC). About 1000 ORN axons converge on one MC, a ratio similar to mammals. The MC output, from cells at various levels, leads into several glomeruli and receives (inhibitory) input from granule cells. The latter also innervate a distinct cell type in the MC layer of teleosts — the ruffed cells (RC), with which they have reciprocal synapses [Fig. 2.18(a)] both relay cells send ascending fibres to forebrain centres (Kosaka and Hama, 1982). The RC are unlike the MC since they are not stimulated by the ORNs directly. Their interactions (Chap. 5) may contribute to the processing of pheromonal stimuli (Zippel, 2000). The main bulbar pathways project to several nuclei in the forebrain via two ipsilateral tracts, the lateral and medial [Fig. 2.18(b)], the latter mediates sexual behaviour and the former probably other behaviours (Hara,... 

An extra-bulbar olfactory pathway (EBOP) is present in teleosts and in some non-teleost genera. Olfactory fibres run within the medial forebrain bundle, and can be traced (by SBA lectin binding) beyond the olfactory bulb into areas such as the ventral telencephalon, and/or the preoptic nucleus (Hofmann and Meyer, 1995). The projection of the EBOP fibres is similar in the sturgeon, but in other non-teleosts the primary olfactory fibres reach diencephalic target nuclei.

Maximum allowable toxicant concentrations (MATC) of cadmium to sensitive species of freshwater teleosts... 

For trivalent chromium and freshwater biota, toxicity was significantly increased in comparatively soft waters this pattern was especially pronounced for daphnids (Table 2.4). Among freshwater teleosts, survival was reduced at comparatively low pH (U.S. Environmental Protection...

Maximum concentrations of copper in elasmobranchs and teleosts from all collection sites range from 7 to 15 mg/kg DW in eyeballs, intestines, muscle, scales, vertebrae, heart, and gonads and from 16 to 48 mg/kg DW in gills, kidneys, skin, and spleens. They reach 53 mg/kg DW in whole animals, 155 mg/kg DW in stomach contents, 208 mg/kg DW in feces, and 245 mg/kg DW in livers (Table 3.3).
