Terms for imaginal disc cells #1816

Closed gouttegd closed 4 months ago

gouttegd commented 4 months ago

Three scRNAseq papers on the wing and eye-antennal discs will require some terms to refer to cells from various parts of the discs.

For FBrf0248577 and FBrf0256653

For FBrf0245749

A cell of the eye disc compartment anterior to the morphogenetic furrow; will become either a photoreceptor precursor cell or an interommatidial precursor cell after going through the differentiation wave.

All needed to annotate cells from various parts of the antennal disc.

We have three terms for precise types of glial cells found in the eye-antennal disc (embryonic/larval carpet glial cell, embryonic/larval eye disc marginal glial cell, embryonic/larval wrapping glial cell of the eye disc). We need a grouping term that would encompass any glial cell that overlaps the disc.
