Baboon/dSmad2 TGF-β signaling is required during late larval stage for development of adult-specific neurons

Zheng, Xiaoyan, Zugates, Christopher T, Lu, Zouyan, Shi, Lei, Bai, Jia-min, Lee, Tzumin

The intermingling of larval functional neurons with adult-specific neurons during metamorphosis contributes to the development of the adult Drosophila brain. To better understand this process, we...
