Abstract
In this study of C. elegans food response behavior, the underlying circuitry is identified by dopaminergic neurons signaling the presence of food to interneurons that release neuropeptides and regulate locomotion by conferring distinct motoneuron responses via specific neuropeptide receptor expression.
