Morphological characterization of RetCreERt2/WT; Brn3aAP/WT and RetCreERt2/WT; Brn3aAP/KO bistratified RGCs. Morphological parameters of bistratified RGCs from the retina preparations described in Figs. 1 and 2. Individual examples of stained RGCs are shown in Fig. 4. Scatter plots for morphological parameters of dendrites, defined as in Fig. 2. a, f Normalized ID (x) versus OD (y) measurement for either the inner (ON, circles) or outer (OFF, squares) dendritic arbors. b, g Normalized ID of the inner arbor (x) versus inner arbor area (y). c, h Normalized ID of the outer arbor (x) versus outer arbor area (y). d, i Distance from optic disc to the cell body (x axis) versus inner arbor area (y). e, j Distance from optic disc to the cell body (x axis) versus outer arbor area (y). The putative morphological types are color coded in the scatter plots and indicated at the bottom. Example cells from Fig. 4 are indicated by arrowheads and letters corresponding to each cell in Fig. 4. Morphological types are color coded and indicated at the bottom
