Regulation of locomotor speed and selection of active sets of neurons by V1 neurons

During evoked swims, zebrafish larvae transition from fast to slow speeds. Here, the authors elucidate the circuit mechanisms in the central pattern generators in the spinal cord and show that genetically labeled V1 spinal interneurons provide in phase inhibition onto fast and slow motor neurons tha...
