The paper identifies serial homology between neuronal populations in the Drosophila melanogaster brain and ventral nerve cord using lineage reporters, single-cell transcriptomics, and a connectome.

The paper presents the complete connectome of the Drosophila male central nervous system and compares it to the female connectome, identifying sex-specific and dimorphic neuronal types.

This paper presents a high-resolution developmental transcriptional atlas of the Drosophila nerve cord, identifying three principles governing neuronal diversity and sex-specific differences.

This study shows that DNT-2 and its receptors Toll-6 and Kek-6 regulate structural plasticity in dopaminergic circuits in Drosophila, affecting behavior and connectivity.

The paper provides a connectomic description of ascending and descending neurons in the Drosophila nervous system, revealing sexual dimorphism and motor-related circuits.

BAcTrace is a new genetically encoded tool for retrograde neuronal tracing validated in Drosophila olfactory circuits.

This study shows that Jeb-Alk signaling stabilizes motor circuit function during postembryonic growth in Drosophila by preventing excessive synaptic strengthening.

The paper introduces second-generation chemical labeling reagents for Drosophila that improve sensitivity and versatility while maintaining speed compared to first-generation tools.

This paper introduces a chemical tagging method for rapid, low-background labeling of thick tissues, demonstrating 100x faster staining of whole-mount fly brains.
