Table 2.

Classes of TH-GAL4 flip-out clones that project to the mushroom body.

Type Cluster Mushroom body area innervated Number of samples observeda Heat shock time
1 PAM Medial portion of horizontal lobesb 11 Pupal
2 PPL1 α Tip 11 Larval and pupal
3 PPL1 α′ Tip 5 Larval and pupal
4 PPL1 Upper stalk 5 Pupal
5 PPL1 Lower stalk and junction 13 Larval and pupal
6 PPL1 Heel and distal peduncle 14 Larval and pupal
7 PPL2ab Calyx and ventral portion of lateral horn 4 Larval and pupal
8 PPL2ab Calyx and entire lateral horn 2 Pupal or late larval

aSome samples of the PAM and PPL1 clusters contained multiple clones.

bDifferent subtypes have been observed, including single clones projecting to the tips of the γ lobes, the tips of the β lobes, or areas roughly corresponding to the tips of the β′ lobes. Due to the frequent occurrence of multiple clones and relatively low fluorescence of single cells, we do not have an n ≥ 2 of high quality single clones to confidently identify all subtypes.
