Firing pattern of MCoD neurons during spontaneously occurring fictive slow swimming. (A) A schematic illustration of the simultaneous recordings of an MCoD neuron (loose-patch) and ventral root (VR). (B) An example of the recording during spontaneously occurring fictive slow swimming. (C) A close-up view of two swim cycles. For the phase analysis of spike timings, the middle time point of a VR activity was assigned a phase value of 0, and that of the next VR activity was assigned a phase value of 1. The right panel shows a circular plot of 30 randomly selected spikes relative to VR activity during fictive swimming. The direction of the vector (arrow) shows the mean of the phase value, and the length of the vector shows the strength of the rhythmicity. (D) A circular plot showing the spike timing of MCoD neurons (n = 7). The grey circle line marks the 5% significance level.
