Qin et al. set out to investigate the role of mechanosensory feedback during swallowing and identify neural circuits that generate ingestion rhythms. They use Drosophila melanogaster swallowing as a ...

Relay of muscle-derived sensory information to the CNS is essential for the execution of motor behavior, but how proprioceptive sensory neurons (pSNs) establish functionally appropriate connections is ...

Examination showed that carapace dissolution destabilises the attachment of the mechanoreceptor anchor, resulting in them falling out in some individuals. This is a new aspect of crustacean ...
