Extracting temporal relationships between weakly coupled peptidergic and motoneuronal signaling: Application to Drosophila ecdysis behavior
Fig 5
Correlation between α CCAP neuron and motoneuron activity.
(a) Orange and purple lines show the activity of the left (“MN L”) and right (“MN R”) motoneuron regions, respectively, and the black line (labeled “Activity”) shows the amplitude of the motoneuron signal. (b) Correlation coefficients between α CCAP neurons and the amplitude of the motoneuronal time series, with individual data as points and boxes indicating median and quartiles. (c) Analogous to (b), but with the pre-ecdysis phase removed. Significance of the within-experiment correlations was tested using a one-tailed Mann-Whitney U test comparing to null cross-experiment correlations *: p-value < 0.05, **: p-value < 0.01, ***: p-value < 0.001.
