Location and arrangement of campaniform sensilla inDrosophila melanogaster

Gesa F. Dinges et al.

Summary: Researchers used scanning electron microscopy to compare the front, middle, and hind legs of multiple fruit flies to investigate the number, location, and individual differences of campaniform sensilla. The study found significant variations in the number, arrangement, and characteristic differences of campaniform sensilla between individuals. This knowledge is crucial for studying the relevance of cuticular strain information within complex neuromuscular networks.
