OA-AL2i3 [FBbt_00110143]

Octopaminergic neuron of the AL2 cluster that has tangential arborization in the ipsilateral medulla layers M1-M2 as well as processes extending into the outer optic chiasm (Busch et al., 2009; Kind et al., 2021. It also arborizes in the superior and inferior posterior slope, posterior lateral protocerebrum and flange (Busch et al., 2009; Kind et al., 2021. (Busch et al., 2009, Kind et al., 2021)

Adult Nervous system Octopaminergic Visual system

Octopaminergic neuron of the AL2 cluster that has tangential arborization in the ipsilateral medulla layers M1-M2 as well as processes extending into the outer optic chiasm (Busch et al., 2009; Kind et al., 2021. It also arborizes in the superior and inferior posterior slope, posterior lateral protocerebrum and flange (Busch et al., 2009; Kind et al., 2021. (Busch et al., 2009, Kind et al., 2021)

The neurotransmitter was assessed by immunostaining with an anti-octopamine (OA) antibody in cells labelled with tdc2-GAL4 (FBti0101786) and NP7088-GAL4 (FBti0037217). Busch et al., 2009 seem to consider this to project to the optic lobe (arbor morphology), whereas Kind et al., 2021 seem to consider it to project from the optic lobe (EM - 1 cell).
