Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does optix define a neuroepithelial compartment in the optic lobe of the Drosophila brain?
Answer: We propose that the optic lobe is compartmentalised by expression of Optix and Vsx1. Our findings provide insight into the spatial patterning of a complex region of the brain, and suggest an evolutionarily conserved principle of visual system development.
Output (English): yes
