<p>Confocal immunofluorescence images of DLM neuromuscular synapses as described in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0129957#pone.0129957.g001" target="_blank">Fig 1</a>. In contrast to the distribution of GS2 observed in wild-type (<b>A, B</b>), GS2 was restricted to perisynaptic glia following <i>Gs2</i>-RNAi KD using the <i>moody</i>-GAL4 driver (<b>C,D</b>). (<b>E-G</b>) The spatial distribution of perisynaptic glial cells over the muscle surface indicates that each occupies a distinct territory in which it makes contacts with local synapses.</p>
