| Term | adult medulla visual projection neuron MeVPaMe2 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00053510 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult bilateral visual projection neuron with its soma between the central brain and optic lobe (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in around 50 columns of ipsilateral medulla layers M6-M7 and sends output to around 5 columns of contralateral medulla layers M6-M7 (Nern et al., 2025). It also receives input in the accessory medulla and posterior lateral protocerebrum of both hemispheres and sends output to the contralateral posterior lateral protocerebrum and accessory medulla (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||
