General Information
Term medulla intrinsic neuron Mi2 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003777 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Medulla intrinsic neuron with both fine and bleb-type arborizations in medulla layers M1, M2 and M3, but with only fine arborizations in medulla layers M4, M5, M8 and M9. It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0212356 ]
Also Known As"medullary intrinsic neuron Mi2" ; "Mi2"
CommentThe neurotransmitter was assessed by co-labelling cells with a Cha-GAL4.7.4 driver (FBtp0014830) and an anti-ChAT antibody (Varija Raghu et al., 2011). Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB.
