larval A1-7-innervating DA1 motor neuron [FBbt_00110220]

Motor neuron that innervates the internal dorsal acute muscle 1 of larval abdominal segments A1 to A7. Its dendritic arborization occupies the lateral domain of the ventral nerve cord neuropil. It exits the ventral nerve cord via the anterior root of the intersegmental nerve and innervates the DA1 muscle with type Ib boutons (Landgraf et al., 1997; Hoang and Chiba, 2001. By embryonic stage 16, it has a short contralaterally projecting neurite extending into the posterior commissure. (Landgraf et al., 1997, Landgraf et al., 2003, Schneider-Mizell et al., 2016, Hoang and Chiba, 2001, Landgraf et al., 2003, Ohyama et al., 2015, Schmid et al., 1999, Mauss et al., 2009, Choi et al., 2004)
