Term adult fruitless dMS2 neuron ID (Ontology) FBbt:00111095 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult fruitless neuron with its cell body in the dorsal mesothoracic neuromere (Yu et a., 2010). It enters the neuropil in the dorsal anterior mesothoracic neuromere, then projects ventromedially and turns back dorsally (Yu et al., 2010). Dendritic arbors are found dorsally while the axonal arbors are found ventrally (Yu et al., 2010). It is cholinergic (Lillvis et al., 2024). There are approximately 18 of these cells per organism (Lillvis et al., 2024).[ FlyBase:FBrf0211884 FlyBase:FBrf0258823 ]
