Repeated stimulation of feeding mechanoafferents in Aplysia generates responses consistent with the release of food

Net connectivity of slow PSPs to each of four subareas of the S1 cluster, for each of the five follower cells (A–E) in naive animals. Net connectivity (mean of three measures per cell) is shown. Boxes show upper and lower quartiles. The line within the box is the median, and × is the mean. Note that outliers are not shown but were included in all calculations. Dashed line at zero. Significant differences in connectivity between subareas was found for B3 and B61/B62 (marked with bold and asterisk).
