Perturbation of the Motor System in Freely Walking Cockroaches: II. The Timing of Motor Activity in Leg Muscles After Amputation of A Middle Leg

Fred Delcomyn
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (1991) 156 (1): 503–517.
https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.156.1.503
Published: 1 March 1991
...Fred Delcomyn ABSTRACT The effects of amputation of a middle leg on the motor pattern in the legs of freely walking cockroaches (Periplaneta americana L.) were studied. The general effects of amputating a middle leg are similar to those arising from amputation of a rear leg. These effects...

Perturbation of the Motor System in Freely Walking Cockroaches I. Rear Leg Amputation and the Timing of Motor Activity in Leg Muscles

Fred Delcomyn
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (1991) 156 (1): 483–502.
https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.156.1.483
Published: 1 March 1991
...Fred Delcomyn ABSTRACT The effects of amputation of a rear leg on the pattern of motor activity in the legs of freely walking cockroaches (Periplaneta americana L.) were studied. Amputation affected both the frequency and the timing (phase) of motor bursts during a stepping cycle. Bursts...
