Neuronal ON/OFF Motion Detection Circuits Underlying Looming-Evoked Escape Behavior in Drosophila
Yeosun Kyung, Richard Burkett Dewell, Herman A. Dierick, Fabrizio Gabbiani
The paper investigates the role of ON and OFF motion detection pathways in Drosophila's escape behavior to looming stimuli, finding that inactivating these pathways selectively reduces escape responses to light or dark looming.
