Introduction

Tongue taste map[1]

These notes introduce the development of the sense of taste which can divided into five basic tastes: bitter, salty, sweet, umami (savoury) and sour. Current research appears to have displaced the historic concept of a tounge "map".

A study in rat suggests that neonatal changes in circumvallate papillae may result in postnatal changes in "taste". (More? Sbarbati A, etal, 2001) In frogs, a large taste disc (TD) is the largest vertebrate gustatory organ.

Postnatally, the sense of taste is also closely related to the sense of smell.
