Lineage-associated tracts defining the anatomy of the Drosophila first instar larval brain
Dev Biol.

Abstract
Fixed lineages derived from unique, genetically specified neuroblasts form the anatomical building blocks of the Drosophila brain. Neurons belonging to the same lineage project their axons in a common tract, which is labeled by neuronal markers. In this paper, we present a detailed atlas of the lineage-associated tracts forming the brain of the early Drosophila larva, based on the use of global markers (anti-Neuroglian, anti-Neurotactin, inscuteable-Gal4>UAS-chRFP-Tub) and lineage-specific reporters. We describe 68 discrete fiber bundles that contain axons of one lineage or pairs/small sets of adjacent lineages. Bundles enter the neuropil at invariant locations, the lineage tract entry portals. Within the neuropil, these fiber bundles form larger fascicles that can be classified, by their main orientation, into longitudinal, transverse, and vertical (ascending/descending) fascicles. We present 3D digital models of lineage tract entry portals and neuropil fascicles, set into relationship to commonly used, easily recognizable reference structures such as the mushroom body, the antennal lobe, the optic lobe, and the Fasciclin II-positive fiber bundles that connect the brain and ventral nerve cord. Correspondences and differences between early larval tract anatomy and the previously described late larval and adult lineage patterns are highlighted. Our L1 neuro-anatomical atlas of lineages constitutes an essential step towards following morphologically defined lineages to the neuroblasts of the early embryo, which will ultimately make it possible to link the structure and connectivity of a lineage to the expression of genes in the particular neuroblast that gives rise to that lineage. Furthermore, the L1 atlas will be important for a host of ongoing work that attempts to reconstruct neuronal connectivity at the level of resolution of single neurons and their synapses.

(A–C”) Developing lineages labeled by three global neuronal markers: anti-Neuroglian (BP104), anti-Neurotactin (BP106), and insc-Gal4, UAS-chRFP-Tub. (B–B”) and (C–C”) are z-projections of confocal sections of a 60h larval brain hemisphere. BP104 strongly labels primary neurons and primary axon tracts (PATs; green) in the early larva (L1 in A); it remains strongly expressed in PATs at mid larval stages (early L3; 60h in A; B, B”). BP106 is expressed only faintly in primary neurons (A), and strongly in secondary neurons and axon tracts (SATs; green in A, right; C, C”). insc-Gal4 is not expressed in primary neurons of the larval brain; it only labels secondary neurons and SATs (red in A; B”; C”). Note co-labeling of PATs with BP104 and SATs with insc-Gal4 in panel B”. Neuropil is labeled by anti-DN-cadherin (DNcad; blue) in B” and C”. (D–I) Z-projections of frontal confocal sections of larval brain hemispheres labeled with BP106 (D–F), insc-Gal4/BP104 (G) and BP104 (H–I). The antibodies/Gal4 drivers mark SATs (D–G) and PATs (G–I) of specific lineages, identified by numbers (see Table 2 for correspondence of lineage name and number). In Panel G, similar to B” above, PATs and SATs are co-labeled by insc-Gal4/BP104. All z-projections cover a brain slice of 12–15µm thickness, located at the same antero-posterior level. SATs/PATs can be identified on the basis of their characteristic points of entry and trajectory; note, for example, the crescent-shaped tract formed by the DPLal1–3 lineages (#33* in D–I), the entry of DPLam (#36) medially adjacent to DPLal, the convergence of BLAd (#68*) latero-ventral of DPLal, the convergence of BLAv (#73–75) ventral of BLAd, the convergence of BAlp1–3 (#6–8) ventro-medially of BLAv, the long descending tract, passing over peduncle, formed by DALcm1–2 (#20*) and DALd (#22), or the ventral longitudinal tract formed by BAmv1–2 (#15*). Red arrows in (E) point at the two separable SATs of BAmv1 and BAmv2 in 72h brain; the corresponding primary tracts form a single bundle in 12h brain (red arrowhead in I). White arrows in Panels D–I indicate brain midline. Bars: 50µm (B–G); 20µm (H, I)
(A, B) Digital 3D model of mushroom body, antero-lateral view. Mushroom body is rendered in blue grey (A–B; CA calyx; ML medial lobe; PED peduncle; SP spur; VL vertical lobe). In (A), an individual mushroom body neuron (Kenyon cell) is shown in red. In (B), neuropil compartments surrounding the mushroom body are shown in a semitransparent manner and in the same colors used in the following panels. (C–F) Digital 3D models of L1 brain hemispheres shown in different views (C: anterior; D: dorsal; E: lateral; F: posterior). Midline indicated by white arrow. Mushroom body rendered in grey, compartments in different colors. (G–J) Volume renderings of L1 brain neuropil labeled with anti-DNcadherin, visualizing relief of neuropil surface. Except for I, each panel shows the contralateral brain hemisphere in the same view as 3D model to the left (G: anterior; H: dorsal; I: lateral; J: posterior). Numbered hatched circles indicate entry portals of lineage associated tracts. (K1–5, L1–5): Z-projections of frontal confocal sections of a L1 brain hemisphere labeled with anti-Neuroglian (BP104), illustrating lineages and lineage-associated fiber bundles (K1–5) in the context of larval brain neuropil compartments (L1–L5). Each z-projection represents a brain slice of approximately 8–10µm thickness. Z-projections are presented in anterior (K1/L1) to posterior (K5/L5) order. Details of the anatomy of the mushroom body and surrounding structures present distinct “hallmarks” for a z-projection taken at a specific antero-posterior level (appear in red in K1–K5). These hallmarks are used in this and all following figures to define and name the antero-posterior level represented in the corresponding z-projection. The anterior level (“AL”; K1, L1) includes the neuropil anterior of the MB lobes, notably the antennal lobe (AL) and lateral appendix of the medial lobe (LAML); the second level (“SP”; K2, L2) is defined by the mushroom body spur (SP) and junction between vertical lobe (VL) and medial lobe (ML); the third slice (“ML”; K3, L3) contains the distal tips of the ML. The fourth level (“GC”; K4, L4) is defined by the posterior commissures, notably the great commissure (GC) and the primordium of the fan-shaped body (prFB). The posterior level (“CA”; K5, L5) shows the junction between the peduncle (PED) and calyx (CA). In panels K1–K5, lineages and neuropil fiber tracts are annotated with white lettering and blue lettering, respectively. White arrows in (L2) point at two examples of clusters of primary neurons that express higher levels of BP104 than surrounding cells. For additional information on lineages and fiber tracts they associate with, see Table 2. In panels L1–L5, which show the opposite hemisphere, compartments are rendered in different colors, following the color scheme used in panels B–F. For abbreviations of fiber tracts and compartments, see Table 1.Bar: 20µm (for all panels) Quick guide to neuropil compartments: Anterior compartments: The PENPa represents the neuropil domain flanking the esophagus. It is subdivided into a ventral domain (TRv), which appears as the anteriorly directed tip of the subesophageal ganglion (SEG; Fig.2C), and a dorsal domain (TRd). Both of these subdivisions receive input from the mouth cavity and foregut via the pharyngeal nerve (Rajashekhar and Singh, 1994); in view of its sensory input and internal lineage composition (discussed in detail in Kuert et al., 2015), the PENPa domain corresponds to the tritocerebrum defined in adult flies (Rajashekhar and Singh, 1994) and other insects. The antennal nerve, carrying olfactory stimuli, defines the AL compartment, located laterally of the PENPa (panels C, L1). The LAML (Selcho et al., 2009), which has no counterpart in the adult brain, is a hemispherical structure capping the spur of the mushroom body (panels C, L1). Further medially, the IPa forms a cuff-shaped compartment that surrounds the medial lobe of the mushroom body (panels C, L1–L2). Ventral compartments: The LAL is located ventrally of the MB medial lobe and spur, and dorso-posteriorly of the antennal lobe and periesophageal neuropil (panels B–C, E, L2). A vertically-oriented gap in the ventral brain neuropil defines the boundary between the LAL and laterally adjacent VLP (panels C, G) and, further posteriorly, between the VLP and VMC (see Supplementary Fig.S4B, C). Inferior protocerebrum: formed by compartments surrounding the lobes and peduncle of the mushroom body. Posterior to the anteriorly located IPa (flanking the medial lobe; see above) is the medial inferior protocerebrum (IPm). The IPm is separated from the postero-medially adjacent posterior inferior protocerebrum (IPp) by a robust mass of fibers/glia formed by the antennal lobe tract (ALT) and medial equatorial fascicle (MEF; panels K4, L4). A virtual vertical plane through the peduncle separates the IPm from the lateral inferior protocerebrum (IPl; Fig.2L3–L5). Borders between IPm/l and ventrally adjacent VMC and VLP, respectively, are defined by several primary axon tracts (e.g., PLF; panels K4, L4; see also Supplementary Fig.S4H). Superior protocerebrum: The superior medial protocerebrum (SMP) lies dorsal of the IPa and is bounded medially by the vertical lobe of the mushroom body (VL; panels C–D, F, L2–L3). Posterior of the vertical lobe, axon bundles of the DPLc lineages (see below) separate the SMP from the laterally adjacent superior lateral protocerebrum (SLP; panels K4, L4). Several longitudinally and transversally oriented fiber bundles (longitudinal superior medial and superior lateral fascicles (loSM, loSL); transverse superior fascicles (trSA/I/P); see below) delineate the border between the superior and inferior protocerebral compartments (panels K3–K4, L3–L4; and Supplementary Fig.S4G, H).

FasII is expressed on each side in three pairs of long fiber tracts (CITd/v dorsal and ventral component of central intermediate tract; DLT dorsal lateral tract; VMT/DMT ventral and dorsal medial tract). These tracts anastomose in the anterior nerve cord (subesophageal ganglion, SEG) and continue as the cervical tracts into the basal brain (LCT lateral cervical tract; MCT medial cervical tract; PCT posterior cervical tract).
