Molecular characterization of the sea lamprey retina illuminates the evolutionary origin of retinal cell types

Abstract The lamprey, a primitive jawless vertebrate whose ancestors diverged from all other vertebrates over 500 million years ago, offers a unique window into the ancient formation of the retina. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing, we characterize retinal cell types in the lamprey and compare them t...
