| Term | accessory medulla neuron aMe4 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00053486 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult unilateral visual centrifugal neuron that receives input in the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). In the optic lobe, it has postsynapses in the accessory medulla and medulla layers M6-M7, spanning around 20 columns, and presynapses in around 60 columns of layer M1 (Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be cholinergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are 9 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||
