Formation of neuronal pathways in the imaginal discs of Drosophila melanogaster
YN Jan, A Ghysen, I Christoph, S Barbel and LY Jan
We have followed the formation of neuronal pathways in different imaginal
discs of Drosophila. The pattern is highly reproducible for a given disc
type but distinct for each type of discs: in leg discs, several neurons are
present before metamorphosis and provide two major pathways that are joined
by later neurons; in the wing and haltere discs, a few pairs of neurons
appear after the onset of metamorphosis and pioneer the major pathways; in
antenna discs, no pioneers are detected before massive neuronal
differentiation begins. The mechanisms used for axonal guidance seem common
to all discs, and the differences between discs can be accounted for simply
by differences in the arrangement and birth time of pioneer neurons.
Different subsets of pioneer neurons are deleted by mutations such as scute
and engrailed.
