Fine-grained descending control of steering in walking Drosophila
HH Yang, BE Brezovec, LS Capdevila, QX Vanderbeck… - Cell, 2024 - cell.com
Locomotion involves rhythmic limb movement patterns that originate in circuits outside the
brain. Purposeful locomotion requires descending commands from the brain, but we do not …

Miniature linear and split-belt treadmills reveal mechanisms of adaptive motor control in walking Drosophila
To navigate complex environments, walking animals must detect and overcome unexpected
perturbations. One technical challenge when investigating adaptive locomotion is …

Visual and motor signatures of locomotion dynamically shape a population code for feature detection in Drosophila
Natural vision is dynamic: as an animal moves, its visual input changes dramatically. How
can the visual system reliably extract local features from an input dominated by self …

Long-timescale anti-directional rotation in Drosophila optomotor behavior
Locomotor movements cause visual images to be displaced across the eye, a retinal slip
that is counteracted by stabilizing reflexes in many animals. In insects, optomotor turning …

How do neonicotinoids affect social bees? Linking proximate mechanisms to ecological impacts
Neonicotinoid insecticides are among the most widely used agrochemicals globally. Given
the critical importance of bees for biodiversity, crop productivity, and human health, recent …

A recurrent neural circuit in Drosophila temporally sharpens visual inputs
A critical goal of vision is to detect changes in light intensity, even when these changes are
blurred by the spatial resolution of the eye and the motion of the animal. Here, we describe a …

Interaction and integration among behaviors of adult Drosophila in nature
Living in environments whose ecologies vary in periods as short as 24 h is a challenge for
animals as Drosophila species that inhabit pear and apple orchards. These orchards have …

Inhibitory control of locomotor statistics in walking Drosophila
HC Gattuso, KA van Hassel, JD Freed, KM Nuñez… - …, 2024 - pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
In order to forage for food, many animals regulate not only specific limb movements but the
statistics of locomotor behavior over time, switching between long-range dispersal and …
