A connectome and analysis of the adult Drosophila central brain
Figures

The hemibrain and some basic statistics.
The highlighted area shows the portion of the central brain that was imaged and reconstructed, superimposed on a grayscale representation of the entire Drosophila brain. For the table, a neuron is traced if all its main branches within the volume are reconstructed. A neuron is considered uncropped if most arbors (though perhaps not the soma) are contained in the volume. Others are considered cropped. Note: (1) our definition of cropped is somewhat subjective; (2) the usefulness of a cropped neuron depends on the application; and (3) some small fragments are known to be distinct neurons. For simplicity, we will often state that the hemibrain contains ≈25K neurons.

The 13 slabs of the hemibrain, each flattened and co-aligned.
A vertical section at the level of the fan-shaped body is shown. Colors are arbitrary and added to the monochrome data to show brain regions, as defined below. Scale bar 50 μm.

Examples of results of CycleGAN processing.
(a) Original EM data from tab 34 at a resolution of 16 nm / resolution, (b) EM data after CycleGAN processing, (c–d) FFN segmentation results with the 16 nm model applied to original and processed data, respectively. Scale bar in (a) represents 1 μm.

Well-preserved membranes, darkly stained synapses, and smooth round neurite profiles are characteristics of the hemibrain sample.
Panel (A) shows polyadic synapses, with a red arrow indicating the presynaptic T-bar, and white triangles pointing to the PSDs. We identified in total 64 million PSDs and 9.5 million T-bars in the hemibrain volume (Figure 1). Thus the average number of PSDs per T-bar in our sample is 6.7. Mitochondria (‘M’), synaptic vesicles (‘SV’), and the scale bar (0.5 μm) are shown. Panel (B) shows a horizontal cross section through a point cloud of all detected synapses. This EM point cloud defines many of the compartments in the fly’s brain, much like an optical image obtained using antibody nc82 (an antibody against Bruchpilot, a component protein of T-bars) to stain synapses. This point cloud is used to generate the transformation from our sample to the standard Drosophila brain.

Precision and recall for synapse prediction, panel (A) for T-bars, and panel (B) for synapses as a whole including the identification of PSDs.
T-bar identification is better than PSD identification since this organelle is both more distinct and typically occurs in larger neurites. Each dot is one brain region. The size of the dot is proportional to the volume of the region. Humans proofreaders typically achieve 0.9 precision/recall on T-bars and 0.8 precision/recall on PSDs, indicated in purple.

Difference between synapse counts in connections of the Ellipsoid Body, with increased completeness in proofreading.
Roughly 40,000 connection strengths are shown. Almost all points fall above the line Y = X, showing that almost all connections increased in synapse count, with very few decreasing. In particular, no path decreased by more than five synapses. Only two new strong (count >10) paths were found that were not present in the original. As proofreading proceeds, this error becomes less and less common since neuron fragments (orphans) are added in order of decreasing size (see text). Data available in Figure 16—source data 1.

Overview of data representations of our reconstruction.
Circles are stored data representations, rectangles are application programs, ellipses represent users, and arrows indicate the direction of data flow labeled with transformation and/or format. Filled areas represent existing technologies and techniques; open areas were developed for the express purpose of EM reconstruction of large circuits.

Schema for the neo4j graph model of the hemibrain.
Each neuron contains 0 or more SynapseSets, each of which contains one or more synapses. All the synapses in a SynapseSet connect the same two neurons. If the details of the synapses are not needed, the neuron-to-neuron weight can be obtained as a property on the ‘ConnectsTo’ relation, as can the distribution of this weight across different brain regions (the roiInfo).

Comparison of the size and orientation of brain images.
Sagittal section images at the plane of the mushroom body pedunculus are shown. Parallel lines indicate the direction of serial sectioning. Purple dotted lines indicate the axes of the pedunculus to show the sample orientation. Numbers indicate the angles of the pedunculus axes relative to the horizontal axis. Scale bar: 50 μm for all images. CA: calyx of the mushroom body. Panel (a) Hemibrain EM image stack. Grayscale indicates the density of the points of the presynaptic T-bars (point clouds). (b) Confocal light microscopy image stack provided by the Insect Brain Name Working Group (Ito et al., 2014), of a female brain mounted in 80% glycerol after antibody labeling. Presynaptic sites are labeled by GFP fused with the synaptic vesicle-associated protein neuronal synaptobrevin (nSyb), driven by the pan-neuronal expression driver line elav-GAL4 C155. (c) JRC2018 Unisex brain template (Bogovic et al., 2020), which is an average of 36 female and 26 male brains mounted in DPX plastic after dehydration with ethanol and clearization with xylene. Presynaptic sites are labeled with the SNAP chemical tag knock-in construct inserted into the genetic locus of the active zone protein bruchpilot (brp). The relative sizes of the brains, measured as the height along the lines that are perpendicular to the pedunculus axes, are 100:83:70 for (a), (b), and (c). These differences in size and orientation must be taken into account when comparing the sections and reconstructed neurons of the hemibrain EM and registered light microscopy images.

Large motifs searched for.
Squares represent abundant types with at least 20 instances. Circles represent sparse types with at most two instances. Panel (a) shows a clique, where all possible connections are present. (b) It shows bidirectional connections between a sparse type and all instances of an abundant type. (c) It shows unidirectional connections from all of an abundant type to a sparse type. Panel (d) illustrates a cell type that does not form a clique overall, but does within each of two compartments.

One to many motifs found in the optic circuits.
Cell types consisting of a single cell, or a left-right pair, are shown at the top of the diagram. Corresponding cell type, each with many instances, are shown at the bottom of the diagram, with the number of cells per type shown inside. The arrows show the average count of synaptic connections per one cell of the bottom group. (a) An example of the most common case is shown. Here one cell, PLP008, has bidirectional connections to all 82 cells of type LC13. (b) It shows a single cell with exhaustive connections to several types. (c) It shows an alternative motif where several cells form these one-to-many connections.

Neural connection patterns.

Rent’s rule for the hemibrain.
The yellow region encompasses the theoretical bounds for computation. Four varieties of human-designed systems are shown. Those designed for visibility into computation achieve the upper bound, while those designed for minimum communication approach the lower bounds (Microprocessors ST7LU55, LPC1102, and STM32). Human designed systems where efficient packing is the main criterion occupy the shaded area (in 2D and 3D). The characteristics of the primary compartments completely contained in the reconstructed volume are shown with alphanumeric labels. The hemibrain compartments fall very nearly in the same range as human designed systems designed for efficient packing. Data available in Figure 26—source data 1.

Summary of the numbers and types of the neurons in the hemibrain EM dataset.
m-types is the number of morphology types; c-types the number of connectivity types; and c/t the average number of cells per connectivity type. Brain regions with repetitive array architecture tend to have higher average numbers of cells per type (see Figure 12). The cell number includes ≈4000 neurons on the contralateral side, and the percentage of contralateral cells varies between 0 and ≈50% depending on the category. For example, the central complex includes neurons on both sides of the brain, the mushroom body neurons are identified mostly on the right side, and many left-side antennal lobe sensory neurons are included as they tend to terminate bilaterally. Because of these differences, the figures shown above do not indicate the number of cells (or cell number per type) per brain side.

Regions with minimum or maximum characteristics, picked from those regions lying wholly within the reconstructed volume and containing at least 100 neurons.
Yellow indicates a minimum value; blue a maximal value. Volume is in cubic microns. N is the number of neurons in the region, L the number of connections between those neurons, the average number of partners (in the region), D the network diameter (the maximum length of the shortest path between neurons), the average connection strength, broken up into non-reciprocal and reciprocal. fracR is the fraction of connections that are reciprocal, and AvgDist the average number of hops (one hop corresponding to a direct synaptic connection) between any two neurons in the compartment.

Cell types that form cliques and near-cliques in the hemibrain data.
To be included, a cell type must have at least 20 cell instances, 90% or more of which have bidirectional connections to at least 90% of cells of the same type. Coverage is the fraction of all possible edges in the clique that are present with any synapse count >0. Average strength is the average number of synapses in each connection. Synapses is the total number of synapses in the clique.
