Neural Control of Gas Exchange Patterns in Insects: Locust Density-Dependent Phases as a Test Case

The adaptive significance of discontinuous gas exchange cycles (DGC) in insects is contentious. Based on observations of DGC occurrence in insects of typically large brain size and often socially-complex life history, and spontaneous DGC in decapitated insects, the neural hypothesis for the evolutio...
