sound activated Johnston organ neuron [FBbt_00100002]
sound activated Johnston organ neuron
ID: FBbt_00100002
Johnston organ neuron (JON) that is activated by near-field sound ranging from 4 Hz to 952 Hz, maximally at 90dB (Kamikouchi et al., 2009; Yorozu et al., 2009; Patella and Wilson, 2018. These neurons are transiently (phasically) activated by the onset and offset of arista displacement. Cells preferentially activated by low-frequency vibration are loosely distributed as a ring in the middle layer of JON cell bodies. Higher frequencies preferentially activate JON neurons with cell bodies located mainly in the inner layer, directly surrounding the antennal nerve (Kamikouchi et al., 2006, and lateral axons (Patella and Wilson, 2018. (Kamikouchi et al., 2006, Kamikouchi et al., 2009, Yorozu et al., 2009)
