Fig. 2. Z-stack projections from live imaging time-lapse videos,
showing changes in the axonal arbors of Tv neurons. (A) Enlarged
still of the most anterior axon arbor (T1) at 6.5 hours apf, showing filopodia
extending from the neurohemal organ. (B) Z-stack time-lapse
projection of the T2 (bottom) and T3 (top) neurohemal organs (arrows) from 21
to 29 hours apf, every 60 minutes. Pruning can be seen clearly as T2 decreases
in size from 21 to 29 hours apf. Filopodia from the growth zone under each
neurohemal organ fasciculate (arrowheads). The last panel is an enlarged still
of the T3 neurohemal organ at 23.5 hours apf, showing the large number of
filopodia. (C) Z-stack time-lapse projection of a pruned T3
axon arbor from 25 to 28 hours apf, showing the dramatic outgrowth that occurs
between 25 and 28 hours apf.
