Genetic and developmental analysis of irreC, a genetic function required for optic chiasm formation in Drosophila.

Journal of neurogenetics - 1 Apr 1990

Boschert U, Ramos R G, Tix S, Technau G M, Fischbach K F

Abstract excerpt

Irregular chiasm C (irreC) is an X-linked genetic function necessary for the correct projection of visual fibers in the optic chiasms of Drosophila optic ganglia. In addition to a severe disorganization of the inner optic chiasm irreC mutants display a subtle phenotype in the outer optic chiasm, in which some bundles of axons that leave the posterior equatorial part of the lamina on their way to the anterior...
