Measurement of larval crawling. A Set-up of the recording of larval crawling with infrared light and temperature control plate. B An example image of multiple larvae recorded by the set-up A. C The trajectories of larval locomotion of Drosophila melanogaster recorded for 2 min. D A trajectory of single Drosophila melanogaster locomotion. Locations where the larva changes its direction were labelled (i) to (iv) (E, F). Bend angle (E) and centroid speed (F) of the larva in D. Labels (i) to (iv) corresponded to those in D
