In zebrafish, dorsal and ventral habenulae develop in different regions of prosomere 2.

We show in vivo that dorsal and ventral habenulae develop in different regions of prosomere 2.

Claim 2developmental timingsupports2013Source 1DOI PubMed

Parapineal cell signals influence dorsal habenular neuron differentiation timing, such that dorsal habenular neurons differentiate while ventral habenular cells are still migrating toward their final destination.

Quoted textsource-backed

Influenced by signals from parapineal cells, dorsal habenular neurons differentiate at a time at which ventral habenular cells are still on their way towards their final destination.

Claim 3interpretive explanationsupports2013Source 1DOI PubMed

Differential developmental timing between dorsal and ventral habenular populations may explain why only dorsal habenular neuronal populations differ in size across brain hemispheres.

Quoted textsource-backed

Thus, our finding may provide a simple explanation as to why only neuronal populations of the dorsal habenulae differ in size across brain hemispheres.
