Central pattern generation underlying Limulus rhythmic behavior patterns
Many behavioral activities of the horseshoe crab Limulus are rhythmic, and most of these are produced in large part by central pattern generators within the CNS. The chain of opisthosomal (‘abdominal’) ganglia controls gill movements of ventilation and gill cleaning, and the prosomal ring of fused ganglia (brain and segmental ‘thoracic’ ganglia) controls generation of feeding and locomotor move...
متن کاملControl of rhythmic behavior: Central and Peripheral Influences to Pattern Generation
Locomotion control deals with the generation of (quasi-)rhythmic behaviors. There are two general approaches for the generation of such behavioral patterns. On the one hand, a central approach in which a pattern is generated open-loop, driving the motor output without relying on sensory feedback. On the other hand, a sensory driven approach relies on sensory feedback that dominates motor contro...
متن کاملThe Central Pattern Generator for Rhythmic Whisking
Whisking and sniffing are predominant aspects of exploratory behavior in rodents. We review evidence that these motor rhythms are coordinated by the respiratory patterning circuitry in the ventral medulla. A region in the intermediate reticular zone, dorsomedial to the preBötzinger inspiratory complex, provides rhythmic input to the facial motoneurons that drive protraction of the vibrissae. Ne...
متن کاملPrinciples of rhythmic motor pattern generation.
Rhythmic movements are produced by central pattern-generating networks whose output is shaped by sensory and neuromodulatory inputs to allow the animal to adapt its movements to changing needs. This review discusses cellular, circuit, and computational analyses of the mechanisms underlying the generation of rhythmic movements in both invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems. Attention is pai...
متن کاملThe 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...
