General Information
Term mechanosensory neuron of adult head bristle ID (Ontology) FBbt:00052184 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Mechanosensory neuron that transduces signals from a bristle (chaeta) of the head. These neurons have a somatotopic organization in the central nervous system (Eichler et al., 2024).[ FlyBase:FBrf0252837 FlyBase:FBrf0259346 ]
Also Known As "MBSN of head" ; "mechanosensory neuron of adult head chaeta"
