Pattern formation in the visual centers of the Drosophila brain: wingless acts via decapentaplegic to specify the dorsoventral axis

K Kaphingst, S Kunes - Cell, 1994 - cell.com
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 …

Origins of direction selectivity in the primate retina

YJ Kim, BB Peterson, JD Crook, HR Joo, J Wu… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
From mouse to primate, there is a striking discontinuity in our current understanding of the
neural coding of motion direction. In non-primate mammals, directionally selective cell types …

[PDF][PDF] Neural mechanisms to exploit positional geometry for collision avoidance

R Tanaka, DA Clark - Current Biology, 2022 - cell.com
Visual motion provides rich geometrical cues about the three-dimensional configuration of
the world. However, how brains decode the spatial information carried by motion signals …

Systematic analysis of the visual projection neurons of Drosophila melanogaster. I. Lobula‐specific pathways

H Otsuna, K Ito - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
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 …

Visuomotor transformation in the fly gaze stabilization system

SJ Huston, HG Krapp - PLoS biology, 2008 - journals.plos.org
For sensory signals to control an animal's behavior, they must first be transformed into a
format appropriate for use by its motor systems. This fundamental problem is faced by all …

Multiple Redundant Medulla Projection Neurons Mediate Color Vision in Drosophila

KV Melnattur, R Pursley, TY Lin, CY Ting… - Journal of …, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
The receptor mechanism for color vision has been extensively studied. In contrast, the circuit
(s) that transform (s) photoreceptor signals into color percepts to guide behavior remain (s) …
