Tv5 neuroblast

ID: FBbt_00005982

Neuroblast 5 of the ventral tritocerebrum. It displays serial homology to NB6-1 and NB7-1 (Urbach et al., 2016. It delaminates in late embryonic stage 11 (Urbach et al., 2016. (Urbach et al., 2016, Urbach et al., 2003)

Numbering also indicates relative position: we follow the nomenclature of Urbach et al., 2003, in which neuroblasts are numbered from anterior-to-posterior and ventral-to-dorsal (so that numbers reflect relative positions along the dorsoventral axis). Figure 1 of Urbach et al., 2003, provides a survey of the spatial organization of the embryonic head and brain neuroblasts of a stage 11 embryo. Urbach et al., 2016 could not unambiguously assign NB6-1 and NB7-1 to either Tv4 or Tv5.
