Journal of Insect Physiology（2014）
Abstract
•Octopamine modulates the motor pattern of the egg-retention central pattern generator.•Octopamine alters motor pattern activity to the ventral protractor muscle.•Octopamine does not alter motor pattern activity controlling the oviducal muscle.•Phentolamine blocks the effects of octopamine.
