Decrease intestinal motility
Submucosal (meissner's) plexus has mainly sensory functions, whereas the myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus has mainly motor functions.
Network of spinal nerves
what is the myenteric plexus
The myenteric plexus (Auerbach plexus) and the submucosal plexus (Meissner plexus). Together, they are collectively known as the Intramural plexus.
myenteric plexus and submucous plexus
between the circular and longitudinal muscle layers

Submucosal nerve plexus and myenteric nerve plexus
myenteric
Yes, the large myenteric nerve plexus lies between the cirular and lomgitudinal muscle layers of the muscularis externa. Enteric neurons of this plexus provide the major nerve supply to the GI tract walls and controls GI tract motility. (page 778of Marieb, A&P 3rd edition)
Barbara Furnell Smith has written: 'The neurapathology of the alimentary tract' -- subject(s): Digestive organs, Diseases, Gastrointestinal system, Myenteric plexus, Pathology, Physiopathology
in wall of GIT the muscularis layer is composed of longitudinal and circuler fibers and the myentric nerve which is the part of enteric nervoius system is present between the longitudinal and circuler fibers
