Definition:Largest nucleus situated in the olivary body, part of the medulla oblongata. It is closely associated with the cerebellum, but its specific function is voluntary body movements.
Comment:[homology-note] "The inferior olive appears to be present in all vertebrate classes and is particularly well developed in species with a well-developed cerebellum.[well established][VHOG]" xsd:string {date_retrieved="2012-09-17", external_class="VHOG:0001627", ontology="VHOG", source="ISBN:978-0471210054 Butler AB and Hodos W, Comparative vertebrate neuroanatomy: Evolution and Adaptation (2005) p.256", source="http://bgee.unil.ch/"}
