Genetic and environmental control of variation in retinal ganglion cell number in mice.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 15 Nov 1996

Williams R W, Strom R C, Rice D S, Goldowitz D

Abstract excerpt

How much of the remarkable variation in neuron number within a species is generated by genetic differences, and how much is generated by environmental factors? We address this problem for a single population of neurons in the mouse CNS. Retinal ganglion cells of inbred and outbred strains, wild species and subspecies, and F1 hybrids were studied using an unbiased electron microscopic method with known technical...
