Exuberant Neuronal Convergence onto Reduced Taste Bud Targets with Preservation of Neural Specificity in Mice Overexpressing Neurotrophin in the Tongue Epithelium by Zaidi, Faisal N, Krimm, Robin F, Whitehead, Mark C

“…A mouse fungiform taste bud is innervated by only four to five geniculate ganglion neurons; their peripheral fibers do not branch to other buds. We examined…”
