 Benjamin Podbilewicz  \n The highly arborized PVD neuron has male-specific
  function and structure in C. elegans\nThe link between sensory neuron mor
 phology and function remains difficult to ascertain\, particularly in comp
 lex organisms. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans provides a simpler mode
 l to investigate the morphogenesis and function of dendritic arbors. I foc
 us on the bilateral neuron pair PVD\, which has been extensively studied i
 n hermaphrodites\, but not in males. My results reveal PVD develops a male
 -specific dendritic structure into the copulatory organ and plays a new ro
 le during the complex mating behavior of the male. The morphological sexua
 l dimorphism seems to stem from a male-specific expression pattern of a se
 x-shared guidance pathway controlled by the Menorin complex. In particular
 \, the epidermally expressed SAX-7/L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule (L1CAM) guide
 s PVD branches into the male copulatory organ during adulthood\, while the
  behavioral aspect likely involves several sensory circuits and depends on
  animal age.
