VO4-6 motor neuron [FBbt_00110289]

Larval motor neuron that develops from the neuroblast NB7-1 lineage, born after DA2 (U3) and before DA3 (U4) (Seroka et al., 2020). It is the Notch ON progeny of its ganglion mother cell (Seroka et al., 2020). It innervates the internal ventral oblique muscles 4, 5 and 6, which are found in larval abdominal segments A1 to A7 (for VO6, only A2 to A7). Its dendritic arborization occupies the medial domain of the ventral nerve cord neuropil. It exits the ventral nerve cord via the anterior root of the intersegmental nerve, fasciculating with the ISNd nerve branch and innervates the VO4, VO5 and VO6 muscles via type Ib boutons.
