| Term | descending neuron of the posterior brain DNp13 (female) | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00049942 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Doublesex-expressing adult descending neuron belonging to the DNp group in the female, having a cell body in the posterior medial protocerebrum, ventral to the pC1 cluster (Robinett et al., 2010; Namiki et al., 2018). This neuron crosses the midline and descends on the contralateral side of the cervical connective (Namiki et al., 2018). It has neurites in the inferior clamp, superior clamp, crepine, flange, superior medial protocerebrum, superior intermediate protocerebrum, superior lateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, gorget, gnathal ganglion, wing neuropil, intermediate tectulum, lower tectulum, abdominal neuromere and wing sensory neuropil (Namiki et al., 2018). It fasciculates with the median tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle in the ventral nerve cord (Namiki et al., 2018). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Robinett et al., 2010; Namiki et al., 2018; Wang et al., 2020). It is a cholinergic command-type neuron for ovipositor extrusion (Wang et al., 2020). It receives strong synaptic input from the pC2l neurons, which relay pulse song information (Wang et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0210735 FlyBase:FBrf0228365 FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0246914 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "adult doublesex pMN1 neuron (female)" ; "DNp13 (female)" ; "doublesex-expressing posterior Medial Neuron 1 (female)" (for all, see Synonyms field below) | ||
| Comment | Namiki et al. (2018) data is for DNp13 (female) according to methods and comparison to Figure S2 in Wang et al. (2020). Namiki et al. (2018) (FBrf0239335), identify this as being morphologically similar to fru-F-800097, described by FlyCircuit (FBrf0212704). | ||
