Olfactory sensory axons target specific protoglomeruli in the olfactory bulb of zebrafish

Abstract Background The axons of Olfactory Sensory Neurons (OSNs) project to reproducible target locations within the Olfactory Bulb (OB), converting odorant experience into a spatial map of neural activity. We characterized the initial targeting of OSN axons in the zebrafish, a model system suitabl...
