The cell body fiber runs dorsomedially to the opposite hemisphere and bifurcates behind the tip of the beta' lobe (Tanaka et al., 2008). Its dendrites enter the posterior layer of the beta lobe arborizing in all three layers of slice 1 (Tanaka et al., 2008; Aso et al., 2014). Its axon terminals are found in all three slices of the alpha lobe, in slice 3, they are concentrated in the posterior and surface layers (Aso et al., 2014). In the alpha lobe, it makes feedforward connections to MBON07 and MBON14 (Li et al., 2020). It also projects to the superior medial, intermediate and lateral protocerebrum (Tanaka et al., 2008). There is one neuron of this type in each hemisphere (Aso et al., 2014; Li et al., 2020). It is involved in the retrieval of reward memory (Ichinose et al., 2021). mushroom body medial-vertical lobe arborizing neuron 2 VFB:FBbt_00100242 FBbt:00100242 MBON-06 MBON06 FlyBrain_NDB:10467 MB-MV2 fly_anatomy.ontology MBON-beta1>alpha mushroom body alpha lobe slice 1 mushroom body alpha lobe slice 2 cell body rind of adult ventral complex mushroom body output neuron 7 memory
