Muscle development is independent of innervation during Drosophila embryogenesis.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Oct 1993

Broadie K, Bate M

Abstract excerpt

We have examined the role of innervation in directing embryonic myogenesis, using a mutant (prospero), which delays the pioneering of peripheral motor nerves of the Drosophila embryo. In the absence of motor nerves, myoblasts fuse normally to form syncytial myotubes, myotubes form normal attachments to the epidermis, and a larval musculature comparable to the wild-type pattern is generated and maintained....
