escape response

  • REVIEW
    Escape responses of fish: a review of the diversity in motor control, kinematics and behaviour
    Paolo Domenici, Melina E. Hale
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb166009 doi: 10.1242/jeb.166009 Published 18 September 2019

    Summary: This Review focuses on the diversity of the kinematics and neural control of escape responses and other accelerative motions that are of fundamental importance for predator–prey interactions and in other behavioural contexts.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Developmental effects of heatwave conditions on the early life stages of a coral reef fish
    Rachel K. Spinks, Philip L. Munday, Jennifer M. Donelson
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb202713 doi: 10.1242/jeb.202713 Published 23 August 2019

    Summary: Juvenile damselfish exposed in early life to a sufficient duration of heatwave conditions are smaller in size but have better predator-escape performance.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Reorientation and propulsion in fast-starting zebrafish larvae: an inverse dynamics analysis
    Cees J. Voesenek, Remco P. M. Pieters, Florian T. Muijres, Johan L. van Leeuwen
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb203091 doi: 10.1242/jeb.203091 Published 17 July 2019

    Summary: Fish larvae may independently adjust the direction and speed of their fast start escape response, a manoeuvre crucial for survival.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Hypoxia tolerance of giant axon-mediated escape jetting in California market squid (Doryteuthis opalescens)
    Diana H. Li, William F. Gilly
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb198812 doi: 10.1242/jeb.198812 Published 15 April 2019

    Summary: The escape response and underlying neural mechanisms in market squid can tolerate severe hypoxia through reduced neuromuscular activity, and complete recovery can occur after oxygen is replenished.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The Mauthner cell in a fish with top-performance and yet flexibly tuned C-starts. I. Identification and comparative morphology
    Peter Machnik, Kathrin Leupolz, Sabine Feyl, Wolfram Schulze, Stefan Schuster
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb182535 doi: 10.1242/jeb.182535 Published 9 July 2018

    Summary: A pair of large Mauthner cells with striking morphological similarity to those of goldfish is present in the fast-start system of archerfish, a fish capable of precisely tuned high-performance C-starts.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Novel neurobiological properties of elements in the escape circuitry of the shrimp
    De Forest Mellon, Jr
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 3771-3781; doi: 10.1242/jeb.166413

    Summary: Myelinated medial giant fibers in the shrimp nerve cord are functionally interconnected, and have fast conduction velocities and fast synaptic transfer to motor giant fibers, with properties that suggest an ephaptic mechanism.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Object approach computation by a giant neuron and its relationship with the speed of escape in the crab Neohelice
    Damián Oliva, Daniel Tomsic
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 3339-3352; doi: 10.1242/jeb.136820

    Summary: Visually guided behaviors operate in closed loop. In crabs, the information of approaching objects is encoded and conveyed by identified giant neurons to continuously regulate the speed of the escape run.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    By land or by sea: a modified C-start motor pattern drives the terrestrial tail-flip
    Benjamin M. Perlman, Miriam A. Ashley-Ross
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1860-1865; doi: 10.1242/jeb.128744

    Summary: The mangrove rivulus is an amphibious fish that uses a modified C-start escape response motor pattern to drive its terrestrial tail-flip behavior.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Intraspecific variation in physiological performance of a benthic elasmobranch challenged by ocean acidification and warming
    Valentina Di Santo
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1725-1733; doi: 10.1242/jeb.139204

    Summary: Juvenile little skates from neighboring locations, developmentally acclimatized to varying levels of ocean acidification and warming, exhibit substantial differences in escape and aerobic performance.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The kinematics of directional control in the fast start of zebrafish larvae
    Arjun Nair, Grigor Azatian, Matthew J. McHenry
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 3996-4004; doi: 10.1242/jeb.126292

    Summary: The 3D direction of an escape response by a larval zebrafish is correlated with the degree of body rotation in yaw and pitch.
