General Information

Term

adult post-embryonic ventral posterior Ilp7 (female) neuron

ID (Ontology)

FBbt:00110664 (Fly Anatomy)

Definition

Female-specific adult Ilp7 neuron. There are 3 to 4 of these neurons, in a ventral cluster of the abdominal neuromere with the dMP2 Ilp7 neurons. It is a glutamatergic motor neuron that fasciculates with the abdominal nerve trunk and innervates the oviduct muscle. These cells are generated by post-embryonic neurogenesis in the late third instar larva.[ FlyBase:FBrf0222499 ]

Also Known As

"female-specific ventral Ilp7 neuron"

Comment

The expression of Bruchpilot was used to reveal presynaptic terminals. These neurons express fruitless (FBgn0004652), but not doublesex (FBgn0000504) (Castellanos et al., 2013).
