Drowning a frog respiratory rhythm generator in a wash of excitation: State-dependent architecture of a ventilatory oscillator
Mufaddal I. Baghdadwala, Marina R. Sartori, Richard J. A. Wilson
The paper shows that increased network excitation in frogs transforms a discrete buccal oscillator into a diffuse network, suggesting respiratory rhythm generators are flexible rather than fixed.
