Morphology and physiology of projection neurons linked to the cumulus (C) of the MGC in an H. assulta male. (A) Two projection neurons can be seen, both having dendrites in the cumulus. (B) Projections in the calyces (Ca). (C) Terminal processes in the medial part of the lateral horn (mLH). (D) 3D-reconstruction of the two projection neurons and surrounding brain structures. (E) The electrophysiological recording shows an excitatory response to the principal pheromone component, Z9-16:AL (The deflections of the membrane potential which occur at the onset of the odor puff and the re-onset of the continuous air stream are probably due to a mechanical artifact). AL, antennal lobe; medial antennal-lobe tract mALT; S, somata; M, medial; P, posterior. Scale bars, 100 μm.
