... frequencies. Analysis of compound responses of the JO did not provide unambiguous evidence of such discrimination, nor did it help to find its mechanism. Using the feedback stimulation method, we measured the tuning frequencies of the JO sensory neurons. Here we present electrophysiological evidence that male...

... of the JAR behavior in terms of a dynamical system model has not been achieved at least in part due to the fact that ‘avoidance’ behaviors are both intrinsically unstable and nonlinear. We overcame the instability of the JAR in Eigenmannia virescens by closing a feedback loop around the behavioral response...

...) motor program or due to feedback from sensory systems that are reflexively activated by the rapid rotation. Two sensory modalities, the visual system and the mechanosensory halteres, are likely sources of such feedback because they are sensitive to angular velocities within the range experienced during...

... method, the pattern of current flow during a gymnotid EOD is changed selectively at distinct phases of the EOD so that currents generated by known electrocyte groups are affected. We have studied the roles played by the various currents for the detection of novel feedback at the trunk/tail region...

... the emitted intensity to target distance equally well for the spheres (aspect-invariant target strength) as for the mealworms (aspect-dependent echo strength). We therefore conclude that intensity compensation does not rely on feedback information from received intensity, but instead follows a stereotyped...

... the release of EH. This positive-feedback relationship allows the Inka cells and the VM neurones to be the peripheral and central halves, respectively, of a decision-making circuit. Once conditions for both halves have been satisfied, their reciprocal excitation results in a massive EH/ETH surge in the blood...

...Rolf Kittmann ABSTRACT This paper presents a quantitative description of the variability and the adaptive properties of information processing in the femur-tibia feedback system of the stick insect. The gain of this proprioceptive feedback system is determined by external stimuli changing...

... that there is strong feedback from motor neurones to small cells, by which endogenous burst-organizing potentials (driver potentials or DPs) and their hyperpolarizing afterpotentials contribute to regulation of bursting frequency. Isolated cardiac ganglia were placed in a two-chamber perfusion system which allowed...

... by the effect of NMDA-receptor blockers. The central pattern generator (CPG) is strongly influenced by feedback from mechanosensitive elements, which at least partially reside within the spinal cord. The edge cell in the lamprey spinal cord serves as an intraspinal mechanoreceptor. The ability to generate...
