      Homozygotes are viable at 18oC and 21oC. At 25oC, viability of homozygous embryos is 22% and those embryos that do hatch die as first instar larvae shortly after hatching. No homozygous embryos survive to hatching at 29oC. The temperature-sensitive period for lethality is between midstage 15 and late stage 16 of embryonic development. Homozygous embryos show a general disorganisation of the peripheral nervous system cell bodies when raised at the restrictive temperature of 29oC. The lateral pentascolopidial chordotonal organ (lch5) cells are rounded and irregularly positioned. The apical dendrites and basal anchoring process are disorganised. The disorganisation of the lch5 appears to displace most of the other cells of the lateral cluster, including the lateral campaniform sensilla, the lateral trichoid sensilla and the lateral monoscolopidial chordotonal organ. Fasciculation of the peripheral sensory axon tracts appears relatively normal. The aCC and SNb motoneurons often show a stalled phenotype, failing to extend normally, and SNb motoneurons sometimes show abnormal contacts with their targets.
      Homozygous embryos raised at the restrictive temperature show altered motoneuron pathfinding trajectories.
      When Nrgl10 embryos and larvae are raised at the permissive temperature (17oC) and shifted to the restrictive temperature (29oC) during early to middle third instar larvae, abnormalities are seen in ocellar sensory system (OSS) axon pathfinding without alterations in cell number or position. Ocellar pioneer (OP) axons become attached to the epidermis, where they can fasciculate with bristle mechanosensory (BM) axons. Secondly OP axons fail to cross the brain at the appropriate choice point. After head eversion, this alteration is revealed as an OP nerve projecting inside the head. free and away from the epidermis but heading and terminating at an ectopic position. Thirdly BM axons take abnormal trajectories. Although they initially project in the correct direction, sometimes when reaching the region where they should leave the epidermal surface and project to the brain, they turn backward and project away from their normal trajectory. Forth BM axons sometimes stall in the epidermis. Fifth, some BM axons, affter head eversion, project separated from the epidermis.

      The addition of htlScer\UAS.T:λ\cI-DD (when driven by Scer\GAL4MS1075) to Nrgl10 animals reduces the expressivity and penetrance of axon guidance defects. The frequency of axon guidance alterations are halved, though bristle mechanosensory (BM) axon extension defects are significantly enhanced. The addition of htlScer\UAS.cMa (when driven by Scer\GAL4MS1075) to Nrgl10 animals reduces the expressivity of axon guidance defects. The addition of htlAB42 to Nrgl10 animals shows a very mild enhancement of the axon guidance defects. The addition of Egfrunspecified to Nrgl10 animals shows an enhancement of the axon guidance defects. The addition of EgfrE3 or EgfrE1 to Nrgl10 animals shows a suppression of the axon guidance defects.
