- W2911556519 abstract "Abstract Background Arthropod eyes have diversified during evolution to serve multiple needs, such as finding mates, hunting prey, and navigating in complex surroundings under varying light conditions. This diversity is reflected in the optical apparatus, photoreceptors and neural circuits that underpin vision. While this diversity has been extensively documented, our ability to genetically manipulate the visual system to investigate its function is largely limited to a single species, the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster . Here, we describe the visual system of Parhyale hawaiensis , an amphipod crustacean for which we have established tailored genetic tools. Results Adult Parhyale have apposition-type compound eyes made up of ∼50 ommatidia. Each ommatidium contains four photoreceptor cells with large rhabdomeres (R1-4), expected to be sensitive to the polarisation of light, and one photoreceptor cell with a smaller rhabdomere (R5). The two types of photoreceptors express different opsins, belonging to families with distinct wavelength sensitivities. Using the cis .-regulatory regions of opsin genes, we established transgenic reporters expressed in each photoreceptor cell type. Based on these reporters, we show that R1-4 and R5 photoreceptors extend axons to the first optic lobe neuropil, revealing striking differences compared with the photoreceptor projections found in related crustaceans and insects. Investigating visual function, we show that Parhyale has a positive phototactic response and is capable of adapting its eyes to different levels of light intensity. Conclusions We propose that the visual system of Parhyale serves low-resolution visual tasks, such as orientation and navigation, based on broad gradients of light intensity and polarisation. Optic lobe structure and photoreceptor projections point to significant divergence from the conserved visual circuits found in other malacostracan crustaceans and insects, which could be associated with a shift to low-resolution vision. Our study provides the foundation for research in the visual system of this genetically tractable species." @default.
