A model for axon targeting: the retino-tectal projection<br />
in amphibians<br />
• The information from one eye is sent exclusively to the opposite<br />
side of the brain (right retina to left tectum<br />
• Each RGC axon projects to a specific spot within the tectum<br />
• Targeting within the tectum is due to haptotaxis (membrane bound<br />
ligands)
