Touch-induced calcium responses in RnB neurons do not rely on synaptic transmission. (a,b) Averaged calcium responses (a) and maximum ΔF/F0 changes (b) in R1B-R3B neurons induced by mechanical stimulation of 15 μm displacement at the position of rays 1–3 in wild type, unc-13(e51) mutants, unc-31(e928) mutants and eat-4(ky5) mutants. Solid lines show the average fluorescence changes and the shading indicates SEM. n ≥ 12. Data are mean ± SEM.
