General Information
Term Pcd9 neuroblast ID (Ontology) FBbt:00005879 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Neuroblast of the central dorsal protocerebrum (Urbach et al., 2003) that produces larval Kenyon cells that have their cell bodies in a relatively ventral, lateral cluster (Kunz et al., 2012). It also produces non-Kenyon cells (Kunz et al., 2012).[ FlyBase:FBrf0161021 FlyBase:FBrf0218649 ]
Also Known As "MBNBc neuroblast"
Comment Numbering also indicates relative position: we follow the nomenclature of Urbach et al. (2003), in which neuroblasts are numbered from anterior-to-posterior and ventral-to-dorsal (so that numbers reflect relative positions along the dorsoventral axis). Figure 1 of Urbach et al., 2003, provides a survey of the spatial organization of the embryonic head and brain neuroblasts of a stage 11 embryo.
