General Information
Term adult optic chiasma glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00100525 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Glial cell of the adult fly that is located in the optic chiasm (Tix et al., 1997). Members of this group of glial cells are arranged in rows between successive dorsoventral sheets of intercrossing fibers of the outer and inner chiasmata (Edwards and Meinertzhagen, 2010; Tix et al., 1997).[ FlyBase:FBrf0096428 FlyBase:FBrf0210316 ]
Also Known As "adult optic chiasm glial cell" ; "adult XG"
Comment Kremer et al. (2017) expression analysis suggests that these are types of ensheathing glia - inner tract glia likely to be synaptic neuropil ensheathing, outer tract glia likely to be tract neuropil ensheathing - https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1373-1705.
