General Information
Term ventral median tract of ventral cervical fasciculus ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047542 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Ventral median continuation of fibers from the ventral cervical fascicle that runs adjacent to the midline as it extends posteriorly (Power, 1948; Court et al., 2020). It is the ventralmost tract of the adult ventral nerve cord, extending just below the lower tectulum (Court et al., 2020). Some fibers from this tract extend laterally into to each leg neuropil as the tract extends through the thoracic neuromeres to the abdominal neuromere (Court et al., 2020). It bends dorsally as it enters the abdominal neuromere, terminating in the ventral-anterior region (Power, 1948; Court et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0007196 FlyBase:FBrf0210897 FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0246815 ]
Also Known As "ventral median tract of the ventral cervical fascicle" ; "ventromedian tract" ; "VTV"
