Expression of shrbScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4221 does not generate a branching phenotype different to that in wild-type.
Rescue of shrb4 embryonic lethality with shrbScer\UAS.cSa, under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL allows survival of 99% of mutant embryos to the third instar larval stage.
Expression of two copies of shrbScer\UAS.cSa in neurons of the peripheral nervous system, under the control of Scer\GAL4109(2)80, rescues the average dendritic field size of dorsal cluster DA neurons in shrb4 mutants to near wild-type levels. The rescued dorsal clusters contain a number of lateral branches that are largely absent in shrb4 mutant clusters
