Regulation of forward and backward locomotion through intersegmental feedback circuits in Drosophila larvae
Locomotion involves the coordinated contraction of antagonistic muscles. Here, the authors report that in Drosophila larvae a pair of higher-order feedback neurons temporally regulates the intersegmental coordination of contraction of synergistic muscles enabling bidirectional movement.
