Analyses of fictive scratching motor patterns in the spinal turtle with transverse hemisection provided support for the concept of bilateral shared spinal cord circuitry among neurons responsible for generating left- and right-side rostral, pocket, and caudal fictive scratching. Rhythmic bursts of hip flexor activity, the hip extensor deletion variation of fictive rostral scratching, were elicited by ipsilateral stimulation in the rostral scratch receptive field of a spinal turtle [transection at the segmental border between the second (D2) and third (D3) postcervical spinal segments] with a contralateral transverse hemisection one segment anterior to the hindlimb enlargement (at the D6–D7 segmental border). In addition, other sites were stimulated in this preparation: (1) contralateral sites in a rostral, pocket, or caudal scratch receptive field or (2) ipsilateral sites in a caudal scratch receptive field. A reconstructed fictive rostral scratch motor pattern of rhythmic alternation between hip flexor and hip extensor activation was produced by simultaneous stimulation of one site in the ipsilateral rostral scratch receptive field and another site in one of the other scratch receptive fields. This reconstructed rostral scratch motor pattern resembled the normal rostral scratch motor pattern produced by one-site rostral scratch stimulation of a spinal turtle (D2–D3 transection) with no additional transections. The observation of a reconstructed rostral scratch motor pattern produced by two-site stimulation in the spinal turtle with transverse hemisection supports the concept that hip extensor circuitry activated by stimulation of other scratch receptive fields is shared with circuitry activated by ipsilateral rostral scratch receptive field stimulation.
