ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00067002 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Large olfactory basiconic sensillum of the antenna that houses the dendrites of two highly-branched olfactory receptor neurons (Shanbhag et al., 1999), expressing Or59b and Or85a (Couto et al., 2005; Grabe et al., 2016). It has a pore size of about 50 nm and a pore density of about 19 pores per square micrometer (Shanbhag et al., 1999). There are more of these sensilla in females than males (Shanbhag et al., 1999; Grabe et al, 2016).[ FlyBase:FBrf0128642 FlyBase:FBrf0187305 FlyBase:FBrf0233453 ] |
| Also Known As |
"antennal basiconic sensillum LB-I" ; "antennal large basiconic sensillum ab2" ; "antennal sensillum basiconicum LB-I" |
| Comment |
Corresponds to LB-I of Shanbhag et al. (1999) based on number of neurons and increased number present in female than male. |
