Scolopale cells follow mis-migrating lch5 neurons in absence of sli. a. Cartoon depiction of stage 16 lch5 chordotonal organs with lch5 neurons (green) and scolopale cells (red). All embryos labeled with anti-Elav (green) to mark lch5 neurons and anti-Prospero (red) to mark scolopale cells (b-d). b. WT embryo showing five scolopale cells (white arrow) directly dorsal and associating with the five lch5 neurons (white arrowhead). c. sli² embryo showing lch5 neurons in irregular positions (white arrowhead) and the five scolopale cells (white arrow) still associating with and dorsal to the lch5 neurons (white arrowhead). d. sli² embryo where the lch5 neurons have not migrated ventrally (white arrowheads), each lch5 neuron is still associated with a scolopale cell (white arrows). The total number of abdominal lch5 clusters examined: WT (n = 46), sli² (n = 30)
