This project explores how bipolar cells in zebrafish retina integrate signals from different cone photoreceptors to enable color vision. It employs genetic, anatomical, and physiological techniques to understand the development and functional wiring of these cells.
Colour vision is critical animals to navigate their environment.
Here, two or more spectrally distinct cone-photoreceptor types are needed in the retina which must be postsynaptically combined to extract contrasts in wavelength.
Bipolar cells make selective connections with distinct cone types at the first synaptic layer of the retina and cone-signal integration by bipolar cells lays the foundation for vertebrate colour vision.
However, how bipolar cells form connections with selective cone type…
