Abstract excerpt
Proper axonal branch growth and targeting are essential for establishing a hard-wired neural circuit. Here, we examined the role of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors (FGFRs) in axonal arbor development using loss of function and overexpression genetic analyses within single neurons. We used the invariant synaptic connectivity patterns of Drosophila mechanosensory neurons with their innate cleaning reflex...
