Sodium and other minerals in primate food plants

Taste recognition thresholds for sodium chloride For non-human primates, salt concentration in food plants is below 1 mM In human populations the median taste threshold is between 8mM(=0.4 g/l) and 125 mM

The gustatory system of fishes,located on the skin, enables perception of salts The genes coding for chemoreceptors of terrestrial vertebrates derived from those of fishes. When primates coevolved with angiosperms, selection of sets of chemoreceptors was adapted to sugars and alkaloids, using the primitive gustatory system… that can respond to salts Why primates actually perceive salts?
