Ontogeny of modulatory inputs to motor networks: early established projection and progressive neurotransmitter acquisition.

Abstract excerpt

Modulatory information plays a key role in the expression and the ontogeny of motor networks. Many developmental studies suggest that the acquisition of adult properties by immature networks involves their progressive innervation by modulatory input neurons. Using the stomatogastric nervous system of the European lobster Homarus gammarus, we show that contrary to this assumption, the known population of...
