Description:
Individually identified neurons can be recognized in grasshopper embryos, and are accessible to examination by morphological, physiological, and biochemical techniques from their birth to their maturation. Only after the axon of an identified neuron reaches its postsynaptic target does the neurotransmitter accumulate, the soma rapidly enlarge, and the central arborizations greatly expand.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goodman, C S -- O'Shea, M -- McCaman, R -- Spitzer, N C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jun 15;204(4398):1219-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/36661" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
