Abstract
Skeletofusimotor (β) axons exerting a static action on spindle primary endings were identified in the peroneus brevis and tertius muscles of the cynomolgus monkey. In most of the identified static β motor units, the extrafusal portion was of the fast-contracting fatiguable type.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
