ID: FBbt_00049611
Glial cell Larva Nervous system
Larval glial cell belonging to a subpopulation of surface glial cells of the optic stalk that migrate to the eye disc (Silies et al., 2007; Tsao et al., 2016. Upon contact with photoreceptor axons, they are induced to differentiate into wrapping glia (Franzdottir et al., 2009; Tsao et al., 2016. (Franzdóttir et al., 2009, Tsao et al., 2016, Silies et al., 2007)
