Abstract excerpt
The development of the olfactory sense organs on the antenna of the fruit fly Drosophila utilises mechanisms distinct from those used in the rest of the adult peripheral nervous system. Lozenge (lz) is the only locus hither-to identified as required for the development of antennal sense organs. I...
