PMID: 32533915, PMCID: PMC7442669, Soto, Florentina, Jen-Chun Hsiang, Rithwick Rajagopal, Kisha Piggott, George J. Harocopos, Steven M. Couch, Philip Custer, Josh L. Morgan, and Daniel Kerschensteiner. “Efficient Coding by Midget and Parasol Ganglion Cells in the Human Retina.” Neuron 107, no. 4 (August 19, 2020): 656-666.e5. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2020.05.030.
Additional notes or concerns
Exists in FMA as Midget ganglion cell of retina , FMA:62360
NOTE: there are midget bipolar cells of retina and midget ganglion cells of retina and they are not the same:
Midget bipolar cells (imb, fmb) have larger axon terminals at greater distances from the fovea (retinal eccentricity of 4.5mm as compared to 12 mm). Midget ganglion cells (MGC) have larger dendritic fields (here seen at 8 mm) as they increase in eccentricity.
