Backing behavior induction with Chrimson and CoChR expressed in sensory neurons. (A) Schematic of gentle touch receptor neurons (TRNs). (B and C) Backing behaviors as a function of light intensity in transgenic animals expressing ChR2, CoChR, or Chrimson in TRNs. Each point represents data derived from 40 animals (one trial per animal). (D) Backing behavior habituation to repeated blue light stimuli (30 W/m2 for TRN::CoChR and 145 W/m2 for TRN::ChR2). Five-second interstimulus intervals were used. n = 30 animals per genotype. (E) Schematic of the FLP harsh touch receptor neurons. (F) Backing response habituation to repeated blue light stimuli (30 W/m2) in TRN::CoChR as compared to FLP::CoChR animals. n = 30 animals per genotype.
