Flexibility in the Patterning and Control of Axial Locomotor Networks in Lamprey [PDF]
, 2011 In lower vertebrates, locomotor burst generators for axial muscles generally produce unitary bursts that alternate between the two sides of the body. In lamprey, a lower vertebrate, locomotor activity in the axial ventral roots of the isolated spinal ...
