Tracheal associated multidendritic neuron of the ventral' cluster of segments A1-7 (Qian et al., 2018). In A1-6 it is located dorsal to v'td1, in A7 it is the only type of ventral tracheal dendrite neuron (Qian et al., 2018). Like other neurons of this cluster, it follows the SNa branch of the segmental nerve (Williams and Shepherd, 1999). After entering the ventral nerve cord, it projects anteriorly, with neurons of more anterior segments (A1-A3) reaching the subesophageal zone and more posterior neurons terminating in the vicinity of the metathoracic neuromere (Qian et al., 2018). It expresses gustatory receptors, indicating that it may be chemosensory (Qian et al., 2018). vtd1/2 FBbt:00002060 VFB:FBbt_00002581 FBbt:00002581 fly_anatomy.ontology larval tracheal innervating neuron larval segmental nerve branch SNa of A1-7 larval ventral' sensory cluster of A1-7 embryonic/larval gustatory receptor neuron
