Figure 8

Projected confocal z-stacks of adult brains showing the effect of targeted expression of Br-Z3 on the metamorphic growth of the pigment dispersing factor-containing neurons that project to the dorsal protocerebrum. Images are frontal views of pigment dispersing factor (PDF)-stained neurons. (A, B) The medial projections of the small pdf neurons in pdf-GAL4 (A) and UAS-Br-Z3 (B) resembled that of wild-type, showing a simple termination well before the midline. (C) The pdf neurons of a pdf-GAL4; UAS-Br-Z3 individual showing the extensive branching of their terminals towards the midline. (D) Confocal section from a pdf-GAL4; UAS-Br-Z3 adult showing strong ectopic expression of Br-Z3 (magenta) in the PDF-expressing neurons (green).
