TI  - Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I and Vicia villosa agglutinin bind specifically 
      to the vomeronasal axons in the accessory olfactory bulb of the rat.
PG  - 73-9
AB  - The binding of 21 lectins to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) of the rat was 
      examined by histochemistry. Two lectins [Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I 
      (BSL-I) and Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA)] bound specifically to the vomeronasal 
      (VN) axons in the AOB. Seven lectins (Datura stramonium lectin, Erythrina 
      cristagalli lectin, Lycoperisicon esculentum lectin, Ricinus communis agglutinin 
      I, soybean agglutinin, Solanum tuberosum lectin, and Ulex europaeus agglutinin) 
      bound to both VN axons in AOB and olfactory axons in the main olfactory bulb. 
      BSL-I and VVA are useful as the marker of VN axons. This selective binding of 
      lectins indicates the presence of specific glycoconjugates on the surface of VN 
      axons.
