    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Mikel Redin Hurtado; [2023]
    Keywords : Food-associated carbohydrates; relative sweetness; seed predation; steviol glycosides; taste preference thresholds; taste responsiveness; white-faced sakis;

    Abstract : Differences in taste perception between species are thought to reflect evolutionaryadaptations to dietary specializations such as seed predation. By employing a two-bottlepreference test, the purpose of the current study was to evaluate the taste responsiveness forfive food-associated carbohydrates and two steviol glycosides in four adult white-faced sakis(Pithecia pithecia).
