In the mammal and fish, an intact innervation is required for the maintenance of taste buds. Vintschgau and Honigschmied (1876) showed that transection of the glossopharyngeal nerve in rabbits resulted in a disappearance of taste buds from the ipsilateral vallate papillae. It was subsequently demonstrated in dogs that taste buds on the anterior portion of the tongue degenerate after lingual (Olmsted, 1921) or chorda tympani (Olmsted, 1922) nerve transection, but not after vidian nerve transection or trigeminal ganglion extirpation (Wirtanen and Olmsted, 1934). In fish, the integrity of the taste bud is likewise dependent on an intact innervation (Olmsted, 1920a), but the relationship is less clearly understood for the amphibia. Comparable denervation studies have not been performed in urodeles (salamander or newt) and the morphology of the taste organ in anurans (frog) is, as will be discussed later, quite distinct from that of fish, urodele, or mammal.
