Wiring specificity: axon-dendrite matching refines the olfactory map.

Gregory S X E Jefferis1.   

Abstract

In Drosophila, about 50 classes of olfactory receptor neurons enter the brain where their axons form highly specific synapses with the dendrites of identified partner neurons. A recent study has shown that genetic manipulations that shift the position of one class of postsynaptic dendrites can cause an exact corresponding shift in the location of their partner axons.
