A pair of ascending neurons in the subesophageal zone mediates aversive sensory inputs-evoked backward locomotion in Drosophila larvae

Animals generally avoid an unwanted situation by escaping stereotype behavior. For example, Drosophila larvae often escape from aversive stimuli in the head, such as mechanical stimuli and blue light irradiation, …
