The project deals with the specialization of miniaturized arthropod eyes to maintain complex visual behaviors with minimal numbers of ommatidia. The work will involve preparing thrips and water flea eyes and optic lobes for volume electron microscopy. This will involve optimization of fixation that will be validated by micro-CT and transmission electron microscopy. The expression of opsin genes in the eyes of these species will also be confirmed using in situ hybridization.
