| Term |
medulla sublayer M6A |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00111269 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Distal sublayer of the medulla layer M6, proximal to layer M5. It is defined by the extent of the arborization of Dm8 neurons proximally.[ FlyBase:FBrf0228639 ] |
| Also Known As |
"M6M" ; "medial half of the M6 layer" |
| Comment |
In the literature there are two methods for describing spatial location of neurons in the visual system: distal-proximal (e.g. Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989), and lateral-medial (e.g. Ito et al., 2014), both meaning outer and inner, respectively, and refer to the distance of a structure along the visual pathway relative to the center of the brain. Currently we will adopt the classical 'distal-proximal'. |
