The embryonic central nervous system lineages of drosophila melanogaster. ii. neuroblast lineages derived from the dorsal part of the neuroectoderm
TL;DR: This work presents 13 lineages derived from the dorsal part of the neuroectoderm of Drosophila and assigns 12 of them to identified NBs, providing a foundation for the interpretation of mutant phenotypes and for future investigations on cell fate specification and differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Embryonic Central Nervous System Lineages ofDrosophila melanogaster
TL;DR: The vast majority of cell lineages in the embryonic ventral nerve cord (thorax, abdomen) are now known and the previously identified neurons and most glial cells are now linked to certain lineages and, thus, to particular NBs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The homeobox gene repo is required for the differentiation and maintenance of glia function in the embryonic nervous system of Drosophila melanogaster.
TL;DR: The cloning, expression and phenotypic characterisation of repo is described, a gene from Drosophila melanogaster that is essential for the differentiation and maintenance of glia function that is also observed in the locust Schistocerca gregaria and is thus evolutionarily conserved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution, classification, and development ofDrosophila glial cells in the late embryonic and early larval ventral nerve cord.
TL;DR: The proposed glial classification system is discussed in comparison with previous insect glial classifications and typically 60 glial cells per abdominal neuromere both in embryos and early larvae.

TL;DR: It is shown here that comm is required in neurons, not in midline cells as previously thought, and that it is expressed specifically and transiently in commissural neurons.
