| Term |
medulla intrinsic neuron Mi8 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00003783 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Medulla intrinsic neuron with a bushy mix of bleb-type and fine terminal arborization in layers M1-3. The projection of this neuron branches at the boundary with M10 to form varicose recurrent terminal specializations that extend back through M9.[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0220286 ] |
| Also Known As |
"medullary intrinsic neuron Mi8" ; "Mi8" |
| Comment |
Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB. The neurotransmitter was assessed by the intersection of the expression of the VGAT-GAL4 driver (FBtp0069181) and an antibody against GABA (Raghu et al., 2013). Probably an atypical Mi1 (Nern et al., 2025 - FBrf0262545). |
