A. Neurons that conjointly encode the fly’s angular velocity and heading (red, light blue) move the bump (purple) around the ring (see Figure 1B).
B. Schematic displaying the anatomically-shifted recurrent loop between sample E-PGs and P-EN1s. EB wedges and PB glomeruli selected for E-PG and P-EN1 reconstruction (Figure 4C) are in gray.
C. E-PG and P-EN1 neurons were manually traced and their synapses onto each other annotated.
D. Connectivity matrix between the E-PGs and the P-EN1s in the PB. The E-PGs synapse onto the P-EN1s that arborize in the same glomerulus (lower right quadrant).
E. Connectivity matrix between the E-PGs and the P-EN 1s in the EB. The shifted P-EN 1s synapse onto the E-PGs (top left quadrant, e.g. P-EN1 6R→E-PG 5L). Note that the E-PGs also synapse onto the P-EN1s in the EB (bottom right quadrant).
F. The total number of synapses from P-EN1s onto individual E-PGs. Although some individual E-PGs receive inputs from single P-EN1s and others from two P-EN1s, the total number of synapses is approximately maintained (p = 0.30, two sample t-test, n = 12 samples for two P-EN1s, n = 8 samples for one P-EN1s).
G. mRNA expression of voltage-gated channels in the E-PGs.
H. Connectivity matrix between P-EN 1s in the NO. Note that P-EN 1s from the same side of the PB are heavily interconnected in the NO.
