Selective muscle imaging reveals myopodia clustering in multiple ventral muscles during Drosophila neuromuscular development.

A genetic imaging toolkit based on GAL4 drivers that label defined subsets of embryonic muscle fibers or enable stochastic single-muscle visualization across the musculature is developed and established myopodial clustering as a recurrent and temporally regulated cellular behavior in the presumptive postsynaptic sites...
