Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

In hbKM, hb12 animals, a duplication of interneuron 2 is seen at the expense of the first born 1/1G neurons. In these mutants the aCC and RP2 motorneurons fail to project their proper dorsal muscle target, suggesting a transformation of GMC-1 to a later born GMC fate. Mutants show a general reduction in the number of motorneuron projections, particularly to the dorsal muscles. Mutants lack the first born MM-CB glia at the midline.

Partially rescues

hbKM partially rescues hb12

Comments

The addition of hbKM rescues the anterior defects, but not the posterior of hb12.
