While it appears that the process is simple and easy to perform, in reality, this technique requires a great deal of practice to master. Routinely, we start students off by learning to dissect and mount third instar eye discs12, which are much easier to work with. This practice helps to develop an appropriate dissection position of the arms, hands and fingers13 so that manipulation of the forceps under the dissecting microscope is stable, easy and experienced. In essence, the practice period shou...

dissection and mounting of drosophila pupal eye discs

The Drosophila melanogaster eye disc is a powerful system that can be used to study many different biological processes. It contains approximately 800 separate eye units, termed ommatidia1. Each ommatidium contains eight neuronal photoreceptors that develop from undifferentiated cells following the passage of the morphogenetic furrow in the third larval instar2. Following the sequential differentiation of the photoreceptors, non-neuronal cells develop, including cone and pigment cells, along with mechanosensory bristle cells3. Final differentiation processes, including the structured arrangement of all the ommatidial cell types, programmed cell death of undifferentiated cell types and rhodopsin expression, occurs through the pupal phase4-7. This technique focuses on manipulating the pupal eye disc, providing insight and instruction on how to dissect the eye disc during the pupal phase, which is inherently more difficult to perform than the commonly dissected third instar eye disc. This technique also provides details on immunostaining to allow the visualization of various proteins and other cell components.
