The effects of gravity on the development of otolith organs in the Japanese quail

This paper examines the detailed embryologic development of the otolith organs, part of the vestibular system responsible for balance, in Japanese quail. The data from this study will provide baseline data for comparison with experiments conducted by NASA during space flight.

Afferent innervation of the quail utricle

This paper discusses a study of the adult innervation patterns of afferent cell types in the adult quail. The aim of the study was to evaluate afferent innervation of the quail utricle to better understand the development of the nerve fibers.
