Expression of pdm3Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-CFP in R neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4c105, Scer\GAL4lilli-189Y, or Scer\GAL4Aph-4-c232 does not affect fate specification, cell proliferation, dendrite formation, or axon projection of R neurons.
pdm3Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-CFP overexpression in Scer\GAL4lilli-189Y and Scer\GAL4Aph-4-c232-expressing neurons has no effect on presynaptic patterning in the ellipsoid body.
pdm31; Scer\GAL4pdm3, pdm3Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-CFP/Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B flies raised at 18[o]C (where Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B is active) throughout development fail to rescue ellipsoid body structure. In contrast, when the flies are cultured at 29[o]C throughout development, the ellipsoid body structure is fully rescued. Rescue also occurs when the flies are only shifted to 29[o]C for the first 48 hours after pupal formation. The ellipsoid body structure is not rescued when the flies are shifted to 29[o]C after 96 hours at 18[o]C.

Expression of pdm3Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-CFP in pdm31, driven by Scer\GAL4pdm3, rescues the ellipsoid body structure to its full doughnut-like structure.
