General Information
Term lobula plate tangential neuron dCal1 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00053419 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult lobula plate tangential neuron of the calyx group that arborizes in the dorsoposterior part of the ipsilateral lobula plate layer 4 visual field (Zhao et al., 2023), receiving input from around 100 columns (Nern et al., 2025). It also sends dendrites into other lobula plate layers and into the lobula (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to around 50 columns of the contralateral lobula plate layers 3 and 4 (Nern et al., 2025) and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It is predicted to be GABAergic (Zhao et al., 2023; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells on each side (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Also Known As "dCal1" ; "LPT45"
Comment Matched to blowfly neuron in Zhao et al. (2023).
