A tube sorbent was plugged between a 'plant chamber' and an 'odour chamber' of a dual choice arena. The original signal is first processed through the odour filters, for each trained odour. Only two odour filters are used, acetone and ethanol. The signal is passed through a number of odour filters which identifies specific odour character using transient response. The following sequence of floral parameters was noted: anthesis, odour release, nectar secretion, pollen liberation, and receptivity of stigmas. Visible soil staining and strong fuel odours were noted in the immediate vicinity of the fuelling facility. Despite this, there was a positive relationship between the amount of investigation towards distant male odour and subsequent aggression towards the male. The difference may be caused by the fact that live humans emit a wider range of cues than the foot odour collected on stockings. Multiple odour sources are used and are identified using only transient information from the gas sensor response. Firstly, classification of odour mixtures is still a difficult problem particularly for systems which are not previously trained to detect the specific mixture. The ticks stopped suddenly on entering the region of the odour and, after waving their front legs, quickly retreated. This facilitates the detection of multiple odours despite a biased selectivity of the sensor. In this experiment, there was also no significant difference between a trap baited with carbon dioxide and one baited with foot odour. The present results demonstrate clearly that host odours play an important role in the relative attractiveness of cattle.
