Retinal Ganglion Cell Type, Size, and Spacing Can Be Specified Independent of Homotypic Dendritic Contacts

In Brn3b −/− mice, where 80% of retinal ganglion cells degenerate early in development, the remaining 20% include most or all ganglion cell types. Cells of the same type cover the retinal surface evenly but tile it incompletely, indicating that a regular mosaic and normal dendritic field size can be...
