Reduction of chirp-triggered acoustic steering bouts during antennal stimulation. Median and IQR of the lateral steering velocity per chirp period averaged over 10 consecutive chirps within 5 s time intervals spanning the trial period. Five time intervals were chosen to cover the acoustic stimulation before, during and after antennal stimulation. These five intervals include the previously introduced ‘pre’, ‘stim’ and ‘post’ intervals. Two additional intervals, ‘late stim’ with seconds [5, 10) and ‘late post’ with seconds [15, 20), were introduced. Steering bouts to close and far stimulation are overlaid for ipsilateral (A) and contralateral trials (B). Acoustic and antennal stimulation during the analysed time period are schematised by speaker traces and mesh position. Grey shading highlights intervals during which the crickets were exposed to antennal stimulation. (A) Ipsilateral stimulation trials (n=28, 15 animals). (B) Contralateral stimulation trials (n=35, 20 animals).
