This paper (among others) demonstrates that Dscam1 in Drosophila is required for dendrite arborization, and clearly demonstrates active repulsion mediated by Drosophila Dscam1.

This study characterizes a loss-of-function mutation in Dscam in mice that leads to fasciculation and clumping of amacrine cells, consistent with the unmasking of an adhesive cue that is shared by homotypic cells.

Nat Neurosci 12 (2009) 35-43. Horizontal cells in mice transition from a tiled population to a shingled population during development, demonstrating that there are many possible mechanisms by which wells by attain their final patterns.
