    Two classes of amine/glutamate multi-transmitter neurons innervate Drosophila internal male reproductive organs

    Marta Chaverra, John Paul Toney ... R Steven Stowers
    Drosophila internal male reproductive organs exhibit parallel innervation by two types of multi-transmitter neurons, a subset of which are essential for fertility, and organ-specific spatially discrete neurotransmitter receptor expression.
