Breaking Symmetry in Walking: Drosophila Recruits Task- and Leg-Specific Motor Modules for Curve Walking

Ezequiel Axel Gorostiza, Ricardo Duarte Custódio, Michael Dübbert, Kei Ito, Till Bockemühl, Ansgar Büschges

This study identifies task- and leg-specific motor modules in Drosophila that enable curve walking by reconfiguring leg kinematics for arcs and turns.

Role of leg campaniform sensilla proprioceptive feedback in Drosophila melanogaster adaptive walking

Ricardo Duarte Custódio, Anna Pierzchlińska, Moritz Haustein, Vincent Godesberg, Michael Dübbert, Till Bockemühl, Ezequiel Axel Gorostiza, Ansgar Büschges

This study investigates the role of leg campaniform sensilla in Drosophila melanogaster walking by analyzing their impact on motor control and behavior through optogenetic inhibition and imaging.
