General Information
Term embryonic/larval migratory optic stalk surface glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00049611 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Larval glial cell belonging to a subpopulation of surface glial cells of the optic stalk that migrate to the eye disc (Silies et al., 2007; Tsao et al., 2016). Upon contact with photoreceptor axons, they are induced to differentiate into wrapping glia (Franzdottir et al., 2009; Tsao et al., 2016).[ FlyBase:FBrf0201162 FlyBase:FBrf0208713 FlyBase:FBrf0233599 ]
