Cell-cell interactions during the migration of an identified commissural growth cone in the embryonic grasshopper

Abstract

Journal ArticleOne of the fascicles of the posterior commissure of the embryonic grasshopper is pioneered by an individually identifiable neuron named Q1. Q1 initially grows along a longitudinal pathway established by another pioneer neuron, MPl, and then crosses to the midline, where it meets and fasciculates with the axon of the contralateral Q1
