General Information
Term gamma dorsal Kenyon cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00110932 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Gamma Kenyon cell of the adult with its dendrites in the ventral accessory calyx and its axon following the dorsal layer of the gamma lobe (Aso et al., 2014). It projects through the most peripheral layer of the pedunculus, and then ventral anterior parts of gamma lobe slices 1 to 4, terminating in a dorsal region of slice 5 (Aso et al., 2014). There are around 100 neurons of this subtype per hemisphere (Li et al., 2020). Their dendrites do not have the claw-like morphology seen in the main calyx and their main inputs are from visual projection neurons (Li et al., 2020). They are cholinergic neurons (Davis et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0207600 FlyBase:FBrf0227179 FlyBase:FBrf0244935 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ]
Also Known As "gamma d KC" ; "gamma d Kenyon cell" ; "gamma d neuron" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
