摘要:: The synaptic relations of the giant vertical cells in the lobula plate of the fly were investigated using electron microscopical procedures and Lucifer yellow dye backfill and injection techniques. Histological features of the giant vertical cells are described. The giant vertical cells are exclusively postsynaptic in the lobula plate. They function to integrate input from dense arrays of chemical synapses and have a wide spatial input from the lobula plate. The giant vertical cells are postsynaptic to perpendicularly occurring cells. There are two classes of cells presynaptic to the vertical cells, one of which contains large dense-core vesicles. The giant vertical cells are not the only cells postsynaptic to these two classes of perpendicular cells. A second group of smaller tangential cells, the twin vertical cells, were also found postsynaptic to many of the same cells that synapsed with the giant vertical cells. The twin vertical cells and the giant vertical cells are therefore integrating some of the same information in the lobula plate.
