The locust frontal ganglion: a central pattern generator network controlling foregut rhythmic motor patterns.
The frontal ganglion (FG) is part of the insect stomatogastric nervous system and is found in most insect orders. Previous work has shown that in the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, the FG constitutes a major source of innervation to the foregut. In an in vitro preparation, isolated from all descending and sensory inputs, the FG spontaneously generated rhythmic multi-unit bursts of action...
متن کاملIntersegmental coordination of rhythmic motor patterns.
The study of the neural basis of motor patterns that underlie wavelike behaviors such as undulatory swimming has contributed to our general understanding of coordination in the nervous system. Numerous studies have shown that the isolated nervous system is capable of producing rhythmic motor output in the absence of sensory feedback (Marder and Calabrese 1996). In addition, in many cases these ...
متن کاملMotor patterns for different forms of walking: cues for the locomotor central pattern generator.
F the past decade, we have assessed the posture, hindlimb dynamics, and motor patterns for different forms of cat locomotion, including forward and backward walking 4 and slope walking. Two of our goals for undertaking these studies have been to identify the roles of muscle and inertial forces in the control of limb motion (reviewed in ref. 7) and to determine the mutability of motor patterns a...
متن کاملProjection neurons with shared cotransmitters elicit different motor patterns from the same neural circuit.
Specificity in the actions of different modulatory neurons is often attributed to their having distinct cotransmitter complements. We are assessing the validity of this hypothesis with the stomatogastric nervous system of the crab Cancer borealis. In this nervous system, the stomatogastric ganglion (STG) contains a multifunctional network that generates the gastric mill and pyloric rhythms. Two...
متن کاملRhythm Metrics Predict Rhythmic Discrimination
Metrics such as VarcoV (standard deviation of vocalic interval duration divided by the mean) and %V (proportion of total utterance duration comprised of vocalic intervals) provide empirical support for long-held notions about rhythmic distinctions between languages. Furthermore, listeners can discriminate languages with distinct rhythm metric scores purely on the basis of the durational informa...
