Adult Motor neuron Nervous system

Motor neuron that arborizes in the wing neuropil and innervates the mesothoracic pleurosternal muscle 59 (pleurosternal 1), ipsilaterally (Ehrhardt et al., 2023. Its soma is found ventrally between the meso- and meta-thoracic neuromeres (Ehrhardt et al., 2023. It forms dense arbors in the dorsal mesothoracic neuromere, including the wing neuropil, with extensions into the contralateral hemisphere (O'Sullivan et al., 2018; Ehrhardt et al., 2023. In the male, it plays a role in pulse song generation (Shirangi et al., 2013; O'Sullivan et al., 2018; Ehrhardt et al., 2023. (Shirangi et al., 2013, O'Sullivan et al., 2018)

Classification

bearer of: bilateral
has synaptic IO in region: wing neuropil
sends synaptic output to cell: muscle cell of mesothoracic pleurosternal muscle 59
