neuroblast CM1

ID: FBbt_00050059

Type II centromedial neuroblast of the posterior deutocerebrum (Pereanu and Hartenstein, 2006; Hartenstein et al., 2015). Its primary lineage enters the ventromedial cerebrum and contributes to the longitudinal ventral posterior fascicle (Hartenstein et al., 2015). One main secondary tract follows this primary tract and another enters at the tip of the protocerebral bridge and projects anteriorly in the medial equatorial fascicle (Lovick et al., 2013). It the adult, secondary neurons of this lineage mainly arborize in the adult lateral accessory lobe and wedge (Ito et al., 2013). It also produces adult central brain and optic lobe glial cells (Ren et al., 2018).

DM5 previously mapped to CM3 based on FlyBase:FBrf0194268 and FlyBase:FBrf0214495. This was corrected to CM1 based on FlyBase:FBrf0260535 and personally checked by Volker Hartenstein.
