Shared Components of Rhythm Generation for Locomotion and Scratching Exist Prior to Motoneurons
Does the spinal cord use a single network to generate locomotor and scratching rhythms or two separate networks? Previous research showed that simultaneous swim and scratch stimulation (“dual stimulation”) in immobilized, spinal turtles evokes a single rhythm in hindlimb motor nerves with a frequenc...
