Abstract

We studied synchronization of electrosensitive cells of the paddlefish by means of electrophysiological experiments. We found that primary afferents of the paddlefish are represented by noisy nonlinear oscillators. Different types of phase locked regimes are observed. The influence of internal noise is discussed.
