In the zebra"sh retina, four types of cone photoreceptor cells (or cones) with di!erent sensitive frequencies are arranged in a regular pattern, named &&cone mosaic''. A pair of small cones, one sensitive to red and the other sensitive to green, is in close contact and forms a &&double cone''. In ad

In fish retinas, cone photoreceptor cells are arranged in two-dimensional regular patterns, called cone mosaics. In the zebrafish retina, four subtypes of cone cells, which are maximally sensitive to different wavelengths of light, appear in quasi-periodic patterns. The pattern formation mechanism i
In fish retina, four kinds of photoreceptor cells (or cones) are two-dimensionally arranged in a very regular manner, forming cone mosaics. Mosaic pattern differs between species--two typical patterns are "row mosaic" and "square mosaic", exemplified by the cone mosaics in zebrafish and in medaka, r
We have examined the emergence of the photoreceptor mosaic in fetal macaque monkeys by using a novel monoclonal antibody, 7G6, that recognizes all cones in the adult primate retina. In the fetal retina, however, between embryonic (E) day 80 and E130, some opsin-positive cones were not labeled by 7G6
