Gogo receptor contributes to retinotopic map formation and prevents R1-6 photoreceptor axon bundling.

BACKGROUND:Topographic maps form the basis of neural processing in sensory systems of both vertebrate and invertebrate species. In the Drosophila visual system, neighboring R1-R6 photoreceptor axons innervate adjacent positions in the first optic ganglion, the lamina, and thereby represent visual sp...
