The Fine Structure of the Retina Studied with the Electron Microscope : IV. Morphogenesis of Outer Segments of Retinal Rods

The morphogenesis of the outer segments of retinal rods was studied mainly in the kitten before the opening of the eye, and the probable sequence of the morphogenetic stages is deduced. Since the development of retinal rods is not synchronous, the deductions were based on observations of many singl...
