...Hiroshi Nishino; Masaki Sakai ABSTRACT The arrangement of neuronal somata and their displacement during joint flexion together with the central projection of the pro- and metathoracic femoral chordotonal organs (FCOs) in the cricket were investigated. The FCO consists of the partially fused ventral...

Evidence is presented suggesting that the mechanism underlying this change in gain may be specifically localised to the FETi–flexor connection, rather than being due to general position-dependent sensory feedback...
