Term larval light avoidance neuron ID (Ontology) FBbt:00052271 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Larval neuron with its soma in the dorsolateral supraesophageal ganglion, dendrites in the superior protocerebrum, where it receives input from Pdf neurons, and a smaller contralateral branch (Gong et al., 2010). Its activity results in light avoidance behavior (Gong et al., 2010). There are two of these cells per hemisphere (Gong et al., 2010).[ FlyBase:FBrf0212127 ]
Comment Only referred to as 'NP394-Gal4 neuron' in Gong et al. (2010). Synapsing with Pdf neurons shown by GRASP and functional experiments (Gong et al., 2010).
