Synchronous multi-segmental activity between metachronal waves controls locomotion speed in Drosophila larvae

The ability to adjust the speed of locomotion is essential for survival. In limbed animals, the frequency of locomotion is modulated primarily by changing the duration of the stance phase. The underlying neural mechanisms of this selective modulation remain an open question. Here, we report a neural...
