What do you really know about them?
Breaking this down into a few types should help the discussion.
The basic types are Territorial, Trail, Alarm, Sex, Epideictic, and Aggresion.

How significant are the G protein-coupled receptors in the vomeronasal organ in determining which types of pheromones are being detected? It's widely known that the fire action potential of the VNO neurons to stimulate the cascade is 1 pA. Far superior to humans.

Should be enternaining to see where this topic goes.
