Many crustacean muscles are innervated by only one or a few excitatory axons that make the whole muscle act much as a single unit. Modulation of contraction and a graded response is achieved through inhibitory impulses, mostly at the presynaptic level. Crustacean muscle is therefore remarkably well suited for studies of presynaptic inhibition.
