...In either case, results of vocal motor neuron inactivation show that motor neurons are part of the Xenopus vocal CPG as for other CPGs across taxa (Lawton et al., 2017; Barkan and Zornik, 2019)....

...Whereas motor neurons in invertebrates are known to play key roles in pattern generation, in vertebrates they are more typically considered to be relays between the upstream neural circuitry and muscles (for review, see Barkan and Zornik, 2019)....

...…model (Yamaguchi et al., 2017) is that the hindbrain CPG for advertisement calling includes NA in the posterior hindbrain, the parabrachial nucleus in the anterior hindbrain as well as a recurrent contribution originating from vocal motor neurons (Lawton et al., 2017; Barkan and Zornik, 2019; Fig....

...CPGs are experimentally powerful because they can often be activated and studied in isolated brains, producing ‘fictive behaviors’ (see Glossary) in which circuit output closely resembles naturally observed behavior patterns (Marder and Calabrese, 1996)....

...Over the next several decades, neurobiologists began studying the CPGs underlying a variety of motor behaviors, and it is now accepted that CPGs underlie most, if not all, rhythmic behaviors (Goulding, 2009; Marder and Bucher, 2007; Marder and Calabrese, 1996)....

...Origins of CPG theories Thomas Graham Brown (1911) performed experiments in which signals to the cat spinal cord – both descending inputs from the brain and sensory inputs from the periphery – were eliminated; these cats remained able to produce rhythmic stepping behavior, suggesting the presence…...

...Origins of CPG theories Thomas Graham Brown (1911) performed experiments in which signals to the cat spinal cord – both descending inputs from the brain and sensory inputs from the periphery – were eliminated; these cats remained able to produce rhythmic stepping behavior, suggesting the presence of intrinsic oscillating circuits located in the spinal cord....

...Innovative efforts in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans gave us the first complete wiring diagram of a nervous system, in which motor neurons were shown to form both chemical and electrical synapses (see Glossary) with interneurons (Varshney et al., 2011; White et al., 1986)....
