title: Genesis of the Drosophila peripheral nervous system.
abstract: The formation of a sense organ in Drosophila is a progressive process which begins with the local acquisition of a 'proneural' state. Mutations altering different steps of this process reveal the existence of several distinct operations, some of which are mediated by transcriptional regulation while others involve cell interactions.
