General Information
Term dorsal lateral tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047533 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Most lateral continuation of fibers from the dorsal cervical fascicle into the adult ventral nerve cord (Power, 1948). It travels dorsally and laterally across the prothoracic and mesothoracic neuromeres (Power, 1948). Some large elements enter the metathoracic neuromere and a few fibers are passed to the haltere nerve, leaving only a few small fibers to reach the dorsal parts of the abdominal neuropil (Power, 1948). It contains axons of descending neurons that innervate the neck, wing, haltere and leg neuropils (Namiki et al., 2018).[ FlyBase:FBrf0007196 FlyBase:FBrf0210897 FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0246815 ]
