Gradient-independent Wnt signaling instructs asymmetric neurite pruning in C. elegans

During development, the nervous system undergoes a refinement process by which neurons initially extend an excess number of neurites, the majority of which will be eliminated by the mechanism called neurite pruning. Some neurites undergo stereotyped and developmentally regulated pruning. However, th...
