A re-examination of the selection of the sensory organ precursor of the bristle sensilla of Drosophila melanogaster.
The bristle sensillum of the imago of Drosophila is made of four cells that arise from a sensory organ precursor cell (SOP). This SOP is selected within proneural clusters (PNC) through a mechanism that involves Notch signalling. PNCs are defined through the expression domains of the proneural genes...
