pR7

ID: FBbt_02000006

Photoreceptor cell R7 that is part of a pale ommatidium and expresses Rhodopsin 3 (Wernet and Desplan, 2004). It outputs to Dm8 neurons in medulla layer M6 (Gao et al., 2008; Sancer et al., 2019). It receives synaptic input from photoreceptor cell R8 of the same column (Takemura et al., 2008; Takemura et al., 2015), mostly in M3 (Takemura et al., 2008).

Connectivity to Dm8 based on EM data (Gao et al., 2008). Connectivity with R8 based on EM data (Takemura et al., 2008; Takemura et al., 2015).
