Ancient origin of the rod bipolar cell pathway in the vertebrate retina

The paper identifies two rod bipolar cell types in zebrafish that are related to mammalian rod bipolar cells, suggesting the primary rod pathway evolved over 400 million years ago.

Evolution of neuronal cell classes and types in the vertebrate retina

The paper integrates single-cell transcriptomic data from 17 vertebrate species to study the evolution of retinal cell types, finding conserved cell classes and subclasses with variation increasing from outer to inner retina.

Molecular classification of zebrafish retinal ganglion cells links genes to cell types to behavior

The paper classifies zebrafish retinal ganglion cells using single-cell transcriptomics, identifies marker genes, and links molecular profiles to functional behaviors.

Neuronal circuitry for stimulus selection in the visual system

This study identifies context-dependent contributions of retinotectal and isthmotectal circuits to visual saliency map computation in larval zebrafish using behavioral and functional recordings.
