Growth cone choices of Drosophila motoneurons in response to muscle fiber mismatch.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Feb 1993

Chiba A, Hing H, Cash S, Keshishian H

Abstract excerpt

In Drosophila embryos, each motoneuron is accurately matched to one or more singly identifiable muscle fibers. In this article we altered the number and pattern of the embryonic muscle fibers using genetic, heat shock, and laser ablation methods to test whether motoneuron growth cones are able to recognize specific targets. The choices made by two motoneurons were assayed using both intracellular dye fills and...
