Color Vision: Retinal Blues
Two complementary studies have resolved the circuitry underlying green-blue color discrimination in the retina. A blue-sensitive interneuron provides the inhibitory signal required for computing green-blue color opponency.
متن کاملColor and polarized light vision: The Drosophila retinal mosaic
Although the types of eyes found across the animal kingdom vary extensively in general organization and complexity, all visual systems use similar mechanisms to respond to environmental cues. In particular, all animals use related opsin photopigment proteins in their photoreceptor cells to capture photons (for review, see Arendt & Wittbrodt 2001). The visual system serves several major purposes...

متن کاملColor-Vision and Color-Blindness
Special public attention was called to the subject in 1875 by an enquiry into the causes of a railway accident which had taken place in Sweden, from which it appears that colourblindness was the cause of the disaster. Our author having described colour-sensations, goes on to discuss the theories of colour-perception and colour-blindness, classifying the latter defect as total and partial. Total...
متن کاملColor vision.
Color vision starts with the absorption of light in the retinal cone photoreceptors, which transduce electromagnetic energy into electrical voltages. These voltages are transformed into action potentials by a complicated network of cells in the retina. The information is sent to the visual cortex via the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) in three separate color-opponent channels that have been c...
