This is a useful technique for investigating the properties of different motor neurons that innervate the same muscle, applying statistical analysis to discrete synaptic events, and investigating the heterogeneity of synaptic release properties among boutons. A compound microscope with epifluorescent imaging capability is very helpful but not essential; any GFP <i>Drosophila</i> strain that labels the nerve terminal or synaptic boutons can be used to locate the boutons. A particularly useful strain is Mhc-CD8-Sh-GFP, containing a GFP molecule that is expressed in muscle, localizes to the postsynaptic apparatus, and outlines boutons. Vital fluorescent dyes (such as 4-Di-2-Asp) may also be applied to the dissected preparation to help locate boutons.
