Abstract
Abstract In studying the cellular interactions within complex tissues, it is extremely valuable to be able to reproducibly and flexibly target transgene expression to restricted subsets of cells. This approach is particularly valuable in studying the nervous system, with its bewildering diversity of neuronal cell types. We report here the generation of over 18,000 driver lines (the VT collection) that exploit the GAL4, LexA, and split-GAL4 systems to express transgenes in distinct and highly specific cell types in Drosophila . We document the expression patterns of over 14,000 of these lines in the adult male brain.
