Pathfinding by neuronal growth cones in grasshopper embryo: III. Selective affinity of the G growth cone for the P cells within the A/P fascicle

The growth cone of the G neuron selectively fasciculates upon specific axon bundles in a stereotypic sequence as it navigates through the developing central nervous system of the grasshopper embryo. It turns and extends anteriorly in the contralateral neuropil of the second thoracic ganglion at a specific choice point where it fasciculates with the A/P axon bundle which contains the axons of the A1, A2, P1, and P2 neurons.
