Studying sensorimotor integration in insects.
Sensorimotor integration is a field rich in theory backed by a large body of psychophysical evidence. Relating the underlying neural circuitry to these theories has, however, been more challenging. With a wide array of complex behaviors coordinated by their small brains, insects provide powerful model systems to study key features of sensorimotor integration at a mechanistic level. Insect neura...
متن کاملCollecting and Preserving Marine and Freshwater Isopoda (Crustacea: Peracarida)
BACKGROUND Isopoda are the most diverse Crustacea. In order to encourage the study of isopod crustaceans and their use in biodiversity studies, systematics, ecology, physiology and more, one needs to know who the isopods are and where to find them. NEW INFORMATION This is a short "how to" guide focusing on the free-living marine and freshwater isopods: where they live and how to collect and p...
متن کاملFilter Paper for Preserving Insects, Bacteria, and Host Reservoir DNA
Sir, the recent report on “Utility of filter paper for preserving insects, bacteria, and host reservoir DNA for molecular testing” is very interesting (Karimian et al. 2011). Karimian et al. (2011) reported that “The filter paper method is a simple and economical way to store, to preserve, and to distribute DNA samples for PCR analysis.” Many facts should be discussed. First, this work is only ...
متن کاملStudying the Neural Basis of Adaptive Locomotor Behavior in Insects
Studying the neural basis of walking behavior, one often faces the problem that it is hard to separate the neuronally produced stepping output from those leg movements that result from passive forces and interactions with other legs through the common contact with the substrate. If we want to understand, which part of a given movement is produced by nervous system motor output, kinematic analys...
