KW had a summer fellowship from DADD: German Academic Exchange Service, RISE - Program (Research Internships in Science and Engineering) to work in the USA on this project. RLC received funding from the Kentucky Science and Engineering Foundation (KSEF-3712-RDE-019) at the Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation.
S1 Video. Larvae expressing ChR2-XXL in muscle are crawling around on the dish when exposed to infra-red light and upon blue light rapidly contract and remain contracted for some time after the blue light is stopped. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0200107.s001
S2 Video. When eNpHR is expressed in motor neurons and exposed to yellow light for 15 sec the larvae become flaccid for a short time and then start to crawl. After dark exposure under infa-red the larvae regain full movement after some time. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0200107.s002
S3 Video. When eNpHR is expressed in muscle and exposed to yellow light for 15 sec the larvae show slight decreases in body wall locomotion and regain movement rapidly after the yellow light is turned off. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0200107.s003
