Figure 2

Olfactory (L3: blue) mechanosensory (dorsal lobe interneuron 1 and 2: DL_Int1, green, DL_Int2, red) and central interneurons (Pe1, yellow) registered into HSB. A mirror image is exhibited for the L3. (A) frontal view (B) caudal view. The projection areas in the lateral protocerebral lobe are compared (arrows). They occupy either separate neuropil areas: L3 and DL_Int2, or L3 and Pe1 overlap. (A) The L3 neuron projects to the lateral horn (arrows) and mushroom body calyces (MC, LC). The axonal terminals of the L3 neuron form microdomains in the lip region of the calyces and overlap with the dendritic fields of Kenyon cells (K, in B). Scale: 50 μm. (C, D) Neuron reconstruction and dendrogram of the respective neurons derived from high-resolution confocal scans. In (C) the neuronal distance is indicated in color. See false-color coded bar.
