Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Photoreceptor axon targeting defects are not seen in homozygous larvae.

Stage 17 dawex11 embryos show very mild fasciculation defects in the CNS with thinning and breaks of the exterior (third) bundle of pioneer axon fascicles. These embryos also show various motoneuron misprojections including ISN delays, stalling and misrouting of the SNa and stalling of SNb at the 13/30 synapse accompanied by defective 12/13 innervation. dawex11 mutant third-instar larvae exhibit relatively normal innervation at the 12/13 muscle cleft.

Reference

Overall brain morphology is relatively normal in dawex11 Actβed80 double mutant larvae. However, approximately 20% of the larvae have collapsed and bundled R7 and R8 growth cones in the optic lobe (this phenotype is not seen in either single mutant).
