Routes and stations in the processing of auditory directional information in the CNS of a grasshopper, as revealed by surgical experiments
Tóm tắt
Male grasshoppers of the acridid speciesChorthippus biguttulus respond to conspecific female song by turning abruptly toward the sound source and then singing themselves. The orienting response requires that (i) the male recognizes the female song and (ii) determines the location of its source. By observing the effects of various forms of surgical interference (cutting connectives, splitting ganglia, destruction of a tympanal organ) on the subsequent behavior, we were able to narrow down the paths of information flow necessary for these abilities and to make an estimate of the contributions of individual ganglia to the evaluation of sound direction.
