General Information
Term adult tubercle-superior bulb neuron ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047049 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Neuron of the adult brain that has postsynapses in the lateral zone of the anterior optic tubercle and presynapses in the superior bulb (Omoto et al., 2017). It is a secondary neuron that develops from the DALcl1 neuroblast (Omoto et al., 2017; Lovick et al., 2017). It receives input from medulla columnar MC61 neurons and different subtypes connect to different types of ring neuron (Hulse et al., 2021).[ FlyBase:FBrf0235330 FlyBase:FBrf0236656 FlyBase:FBrf0254510 ]
Also Known As "adult TuBus neuron" ; "AOTU-BUs" ; "TuBu neuron terminating in superior bulb" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
