most.lhns: A comprehensive lateral horn neuron dataset

In jefferislab/lhns: Skeleton data for neurons associated with the lateral horn of Drosophila melanogaster

Description

A dataset containing all of the FlyCircuit neurons that seem to have dendrites in the lateral horn (LH), as well as traced dye-fills from Frechter et al. 2019. The neurons are in the nat package's neuron format. As of v2.0 of this package, the names from these neurons have been modified from those used in Frechter et al. 2019 due to changes in the LH naming scheme as it was exapnded to all lateral horn neurons within the hemibrain (Scheffer et al. 2020).

Usage

most.lhns

Format

An object of class neuronlist (inherits from list) of length 1646.
