larval gamma Kenyon cell [FBbt_00049827]
Gamma Kenyon cell of the larval (or late embryonic) mushroom body. It innervates both (vertical and medial) lobes (Lee et al., 1999; Kunz et al., 2012). It is the first type of Kenyon cell to be produced, and is born in the late embryo or early larva (Lee et al., 1999; Kunz et al., 2012). It is pruned back during early pupal stages to innervate only the gamma lobe of the adult mushroom body (Lee et al., 1999; Truman et al., 2023).
