Persistent larval sensory neurones are required for the normal development of the adult sensory afferent projections in Drosophila

<p>We have tested the hypothesis that larval neurones guide growth of adult sensory axons in Drosophila. We show that ablation of larval sensory neurones causes defects in the central projections of adult sensory neurones. Spiralling axons and ectopic projections indicate failure in axon growt...
