The neuropeptide F/nitric oxide pathway is essential for shaping locomotor plasticity underlying locust phase transition
Behavioral plasticity is widespread in swarming animals, but little is known about its underlying neural and molecular mechanisms. Here, we report that a neuropeptide F (NPF)/nitric oxide (NO) pathway plays a critical role in the locomotor plasticity of swarming migratory locusts. The transcripts en...
