larval DA2 motor neuron [FBbt_00001567]

Larval motor neuron that innervates dorsal acute muscle 2 (muscle 2) via type Ib synapses (Landgraf et al., 1997; Hoang and Chiba, 2001; Meng et al., 2019). It is the third-born U neuron, developing from the third ganglion mother cell that differentiates from neuroblast NB7-1 (Cleary and Doe, 2006; Seroka et al., 2020). It has a monopolar morphology and its dendrites remain ipsilateral (Seroka and Doe, 2019; Meng et al., 2019).

Larva Motor neuron lineage 3 NB7-1 primary neuron

Larval motor neuron that innervates dorsal acute muscle 2 (muscle 2) via type Ib synapses (Landgraf et al., 1997; Hoang and Chiba, 2001; Meng et al., 2019). It is the third-born U neuron, developing from the third ganglion mother cell that differentiates from neuroblast NB7-1 (Cleary and Doe, 2006; Seroka et al., 2020). It has a monopolar morphology and its dendrites remain ipsilateral (Seroka and Doe, 2019; Meng et al., 2019).

DA2 previously thought to correspond to U2 based on cell body position (personal communication from Matthias Landgraf - FBrf0221138). Now known to correspond to U3 (Zarin et al., 2019; Meng et al., 2019).
