Segmental Organization of Vestibular and Reticular Projections to Spinal and Oculomotor Nuclei in the Zebrafish and Goldfish

A series of eight neuromeric units called rhombomeres, expressing restricted combinations of developmental genes that are believed to define the identity and histogenic fate of each hindbrain segment, are contained in the developing hindbrain of vertebrates.

Description
Summary:A series of eight neuromeric units called rhombomeres, expressing restricted combinations of developmental genes that are believed to define the identity and histogenic fate of each hindbrain segment, are contained in the developing hindbrain of vertebrates. Suwa et al reconstructed the hindbrain reticular and vestibular scaffold in juvenile goldfish and zebrafish with confocal microscopy.
