General Information
Term transmedullary neuron Tm16 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003804 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Transmedullary wide-field neuron that terminates in lobula layers 4, 5 and 6 with fine arborizations, and with bleb-type arborizations in layers 5 and 6. It displays fine arborizations in medulla layers M1, M3, M4, M5, M8 and M9, and has bleb-type arborizations in layers M3, M4, M5, M8 and M9 (Morante and Desplan, 2008; Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989).[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0204652 ]
Also Known As"Tm16"
CommentPre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB.
