1. Vasomotor tone and reactivity were investigated in feed arteries of the extensor digitorum longus and soleus muscles. Feed arteries are located external to the muscle and give rise to the microcirculation within each muscle. Resting diameter was smaller in feed arteries of the soleus muscle. 2. Feed arteries of both muscles dilated to similar peak values with sodium nitroprusside. 3. Micropressure measurements demonstrated resistance to blood flow in the feed arteries supplying both muscles. Feed arteries supplying soleus muscle demonstrated greater resistance to blood flow compared to feed arteries of extensor digitorum longus muscle. 4. Greater resting tone and larger pressure drop for feed arteries of soleus muscle suggest greater range of flow control compared to feed arteries of extensor digitorum longus muscle. 5. In both muscles, feed artery diameter increased with muscle contraction (functional dilatation) and in response to transient ischaemia (reactive dilatation). The magnitude of these responses varied between muscles. 6. Feed arteries are active sites of blood flow control in extensor digitorum longus and soleus muscles of the rat. These muscles differ in fibre type and recruitment properties. Differences in feed artery reactivity may contribute to differences in blood flow between these muscles observed at rest and during exercise.
