Effect of static load on motor behavior of the cockroach Periplaneta americana

Functional role of leg receptors of the cockroach Periplaneta americana in the system of walking control

“…Analysis of the obtained results and their comparison with literature data and our earlier performed investigations [15][16][17] have allowed us to conclude that readjustment of the central program controlling rhythm of cockroach walking movements (i.e., speed) in correspondence with changing environment conditions might be realized by different ways.
