General Information
|
| Term |
medulla tangential neuron Mt2 |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00003838 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Medulla tangential neuron with a giant projection that extends across the anterior-posterior length of medulla layer 10, with some bleb-type arborizations here. It extensively arborizes with both fine and bleb-type arborizations throughout the whole of medulla layer M8, and occasionally crosses into layer M9. It displays both fine and bleb-type arborizations in medulla layers M3, M5 and M6.[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 ] |
| Also Known As |
"medullary tangential neuron Mt2" ; "Mt2" |
| Comment |
Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB. Figure 18 of Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) shows extensive arborization of this neuron in medulla layer M8, but states arborization is in the serpentine layer (M7). We have captured the details of the figure rather than the textual information. |
