Abstract excerpt
The progenitors of the Drosophila central nervous system (CNS), called neuroblasts, segregate from the neurectoderm of the early embryo in a stereotyped pattern. The neuroblasts that give rise to the brain segregate from the procephalic neurectoderm and form three neuromeres, called protocerebrum, deuterocerebrum, and tritocerebrum. The expression of the proneural genes of the achaete-scute complex (AS-C) is...
