JO-F [FBbt_00049956]

Johnston organ neuron (JON) that innervates zone F of the antennal mechanosensory and motor center (AMMC) (Hampel et al., 2020). Their cell bodies are located in the dorsal (anterior and posterior), ventral (posterior) and intermediate (posterior) regions of the Johnston organ bowl (Hampel et al., 2020). Some of these neurons elicit brief backwards locomotion, followed by antennal grooming (Hampel et al., 2015; Hampel et al., 2020). They do not respond to aristal deflection or vibration (Hampel et al., 2020).
