Long-read sequencing with targeted assembly of the opsin locus accurately evaluates genes in expressed positions

This paper evaluates long-read sequencing with targeted assembly for accurately analyzing the opsin gene cluster, showing high concordance and improved detection of color vision deficiencies and carrier status.

Conserved Circuits for Direction Selectivity in the Primate Retina

This study reveals that direction selectivity circuits in primate retinas are conserved, showing SACs target a specific ganglion cell type involved in motion processing.

Spatiotemporal specification of human green and red cones

The paper investigates the spatiotemporal development of M and L cones in the human retina, finding that retinoic acid signaling promotes M cone fate early in development.

The Spectral Sensitivity of the Neurons Mediating Black and White

The paper investigates whether midget ganglion cells account for variation in perceived saturation with wavelength in black and white perception.

An S-cone circuit for edge detection in the primate retina

The paper confirms the existence of an S-cone center OFF midget RGC circuit in macaque retina, showing its role in spatial vision and potential contribution to edge detection.
