Term descending neuron of the gnathal ganglion DNg74 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00051961 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult descending neuron with its soma in the ventral gnathal ganglion (Sterne et al., 2021). In the brain, it has bilateral dendritic and axonal arborization in the gnathal ganglion (Sterne et al., 2021). It descends on the contralateral side of the cervical connective, follows the dorsal lateral tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus, and has axonal arborization in the T1, T2 and T3 leg neuropils, and the abdominal neuromere (Sterne et al., 2021; Sturner et al., 2025). There are approximately four of these cells per organism (Sturner et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0251280 FlyBase:FBrf0262850 ]
