Photoreceptors generate neuronal diversity in their target field through a Hedgehog morphogen gradient in Drosophila

Matthew P. Bostock, Anadika R. Prasad, Alicia Donoghue, Vilaiwan M. Fernandes

The paper shows that Hedgehog morphogen gradients from photoreceptors specify neuronal diversity in the Drosophila lamina through graded pathway activity thresholds.
