Cover Illustration: A horizontal cell of the mouse retina contacts almost all cone pedicles within its dendritic field. During patch‐clamp recording in a horizontal slice preparation, a horizontal cell was injected with Alexa 568 (red). The slice was fixed and counterstained with fluorescein‐labeled peanut‐agglutinin as a marker for cone pedicles (green). The image shows a three‐dimensional reconstruction of the soma and proximal dendritic tree of the horizontal cell placed on the cone pedicle distribution. Merging of both stainings reveals synaptic contacts between cones and horizontal cell dendrites. Eur. J. Neurosci. , 42 , 2615–2632.
