neuroblast NB7-1

ID: FBbt_00001380

Neuroblast that delaminates in the first wave and generates the largest primary lineage, producing more than 40 cells in each hemisegment (Schmid et al., 1999). Its embryonic progeny include the U neurons and a large number of local interneurons (Schmid et al., 1999). In the embryo, one of these cells can be found in each hemisegment from S1-A9 (Birkholz et al., 2013; Urbach et al., 2016). In the larva, it resumes proliferation in segments S3 to A1 (Lacin and Truman, 2016). The neurons that develop from this neuroblast after larval hatching form postembryonic lineage 3, located at the posterior border of the neuromere (Lacin and Truman, 2016).

Lacin and Truman (2016) do not show data for neuromeres anterior to S3 (labial).
