The role of the AFD neuron in C. elegans thermotaxis analyzed using femtosecond laser ablation
BACKGROUND: Caenorhabditis elegans actively crawls down thermal gradients until it reaches the temperature of its prior cultivation, exhibiting what is called cryophilic movement. Implicit in the worm's performance of cryophilic movement is the ability to detect thermal gradients, and implicit...
