Abstract

A new study reveals the effects of specific single cell type perturbations on the assembly and function of a mechanosensory circuit in the Drosophila melanogaster larva with synaptic resolution. This work paves the way for the use of comparative connectomics to understand general principles governing the development of wiring specificity.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
