Step response analysis of thermotaxis in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 15 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans migrates toward a preferred temperature on a thermal gradient. A candidate neural network for thermotaxis in C. elegans has been identified, but the behavioral strategy implemented by this network is poorly understood. In this study, we tested whether thermal migration is achieved by modulating the probability of turning behavior, as in C. elegans chemotaxis. This was done by...
