The authors found considerable preparation-to-preparation variability in the strength of two identified synapses, the amplitude of a modulator-evoked current and the expression of six ion channel genes in the pyloric circuit of the crab stomatogastric ganglion. These parameters correlated with circuit performance. Circuits produced similar outputs because of compensatory and coordinated changes among the parameters.
