Targeting of amacrine cell neurites to appropriate synaptic laminae in the developing zebrafish retina. In the normal retina (Figure 6(a)), anti-GABA antibody labels the inner plexiform layer (IPL), the amacrine cells located on the inner lamina of the INL, and the horizontal cells located on the outer lamina of the INL. |
