Thermotaxis in Caenorhabditis elegans analyzed by measuring responses to defined Thermal stimuli.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Jul 2002

Ryu William S, Samuel Aravinthan D T

Abstract excerpt

In a spatial thermal gradient, Caenorhabditis elegans migrates toward and then isothermally tracks near its cultivation temperature. A current model for thermotactic behavior involves a thermophilic drive (involving the neurons AFD and AIY) and cryophilic drive (involving the neuron AIZ) that balance at the cultivation temperature. Here, we analyze the movements of individual worms responding to defined thermal...
