Analysis of target-derived factors regulating axon guidance in the visual system of Drosophila

2006-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The developing visual system of <i>Drosophila</i> is characterized by complex and stereotyped patterns of neuronal connections. The <i>Drosophila</i> compound eye consists of approximately 800 ommatidia, each containing 8 photoreceptor cells (R-cells, R1-R8). Each of these R-cell groups have distinct spectral sensitivity and target specificity. Rl-R6 axons terminate in the first optic ganglion called the lamina, i...
