Viral tracing with EnvA-coated rabies virus and herpes-simplex-virus (HSV).

(A) Injection strategy for labeling of the circuit connecting the retina to the pulvinar, via the superior colliculus. (B) Example retina with labeled ganglion cells innervating the colliculo-pulvinar circuit. Scale bar = 500 μm. (C) Zoomed-in version of B. Scale bar = 50 μm. (D) Whole-mount retina stained with antibody for GCaMP6s after EnvA-coated SAD-△G-GCaMP6s rabies virus injection to superior colliculus alone without first injection of HSV. No labeled cells are observed 11 days after injection. Scale bar: 500 µm. (E) Injection of conditional HSV into the pulvinar of a wild-type mouse without any Rabies injection. Very few labeled cells are observed 21 days after injection. (F–G) Injection of conditional HSV into the pulvinar (F) and non-conditional HSV into the parabigeminal nuclei (G) labeled superior colliculus neurons. Neurons were stained with anti-mCherry antibody, showed in magenta. Scale bar = 200 µm. (H) Side-view of z-stack scans of four example retinal ganglion cells (green) and the ChAT-bands (magenta). Scale bar = 20 µm. (I–K) Retinal position and dendritic tree diameter of retinal ganglion cells that are part of the colliculo-parabigeminal circuit (I), cells innervating the colliculo-pulvinar circuit (J), and bistratified ganglion cells of both circuits (K). To determine if the differences in size between the colliculo-parabigeminal and colliculo-pulvinar circuit are due to a bias in the retinotopic location of the sampled ganglion cells, we analyzed the spatial distribution of the labeled neurons across the retina. For each circuit, we sampled evenly from each retinal quadrant (15.6% naso-dorsal, 30.4% dorso-temporal, 28.3% temporo-ventral, 24.6% ventro-nasal. In addition, we sampled at all retinal eccentricities: 52% of labeled ganglion cells were sampled from the central third of the retina (within 30° of the optic nerve), 43% from the middle third (30°−60° from the optic nerve) and 5% from the peripheral third (60°−90° from the optic nerve). This indicates that the observed difference in size between the two circuits is not due to a sampling bias in retinotopic location. N = nasal, D = dorsal, T = temporal, V = ventral. The optic nerve is indicated with a black disc. (L) The distribution of the dendritic tree in depth was summed to create a stratification profile. (M) Stratification depth and dendritic tree diameter of all 658 labeled retinal ganglion cells from both experimental conditions.

Schematic of the projection preference logic of retinal ganglion cell inputs to the superior colliculus.

In total, 14 ganglion cell types are sampled by parabigeminal- and pulvinar-projecting collicular neurons. Four cell types are biased for the LP-circuit, four have a preference for the Pbg-circuit, and six have no bias for either circuit. The color and the number of the retinal ganglion cell types corresponds to the clusters defined in Figure 2. All the other cell types of the EM data set are not sampled by our data set. The relative response properties routed to the pulvinar and/or parabigeminal nucleus are indicated with the relative color and number.
