We present a quantitative evaluation of Golgiimpregnated columnar neurons in the optic
lobe of wildtype Drosophila melanogaster. This analysis reveals the overall connectivity …

Golgi studies of the neurons in the optic lobes of Drosophila melanogaster reveal a large
number of neuronal cell types. These can be classified as either columnar or tangential …

Different classes of glia cells in the optic lobes of Drosophila melanogaster were defined by
the enhancer trap technique, using expression of the lacZ reporter gene. At both the outer …

Understanding the visual pathways of the fly's compound eye has been blocked for decades
at the second optic neuropil, the medulla, a two‐part relay comprising 10 strata (M1–M10) …

In insects, visual information is processed in the optic lobe and conveyed to the central
brain. Although neural circuits within the optic lobe have been studied extensively, relatively …

A stepwise morphogenetic program of ceil division and cell fate determination generates the
precise neuronal architecture of the visual centers of the Drosophila brain. Here, we show …

The lobula plate in the optic lobe of the fly brain is a high‐order processing center for visual
information. Within the lobula plate lie a small number of giant neurons that are responsible …

We have identified a set of larval neurones in the developing adult optic lobes of Drosophila
by selectively labelling cells that have undergone only a few mitoses. A cluster of three cells …

The Drosophila optic lobe comprises a wide variety of neurons, which form laminar
neuropiles with columnar units and topographic projections from the retina. The Drosophila …

Summary We quantitatively describe 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) neuronal activity labeling
patterns in the first and second visual neuropil regions of the Drosophila brain, the lamina …
