Figure 1 Molecular Basis for Kin Discrimination (A) Different species of animals utilize various sensory modalities for social recognition and discrimination. (B) Xenopus larvae grown in different rearing conditions receive a specific set of olfactory cues during development. This results in re-specification of NT composition, which in turn affects the animals’ social preference to kin and non-kin odors (Dulcis et al., 2017). DA, dopamine; GABA, gamma aminobutyric acid.
