phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran
in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Genetic modulation of horizontal cell number in the mouse retina.
Neuronal populations display conspicuous variability in their size among individuals, but the genetic sources of this variation are largely undefined. We demonstrate a large and highly heritable variation in neuron number within the mouse retina, affecting a critical population of interneurons, the horizontal cells. Variation in the size of this population maps to the distal end of chromosome (...
متن کاملTransmission of scotopic signals from the rod to rod-bipolar cell in the mammalian retina
Mammals can see at low scotopic light levels where only 1 rod in several thousand transduces a photon. The single photon signal is transmitted to the brain by the ganglion cell, which collects signals from more than 1000 rods to provide enough amplification. If the system were linear, such convergence would increase the neural noise enough to overwhelm the tiny rod signal. Recent studies provid...
متن کاملDevelopmental and Genetic Control of Cell Number in Retina
Now, nearly a century after Weismann, it is self-evident that the missing chapters of the Modern Synthesis—the merging of genetics with development and the merging of development with evolution—remain the major tasks before us.
متن کاملDepolarizing effect of GABA in rod bipolar cells of the mouse retina
Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) has been characterized as inhibitory neurotransmitter through chloride mediated channels in the adult nervous system. However, using gramicidin perforated patch-clamp recordings from rod bipolar cells dissociated from retinas of adult mice, we find that GABA is capable of inducing cell depolarization. Currents mediated by GABA(A) and GABA(C) receptors were furthe...
