Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity and photopigments of R1-6, a two-peaked photoreceptor, inDrosophila, Calliphora andMusca
TL;DR: These and previous results suggest that the two R1-6 spectral peaks are ultimately mediated by one rhodopsin, and calculations show electro-retinographic sensitivity to be extremely high, perhaps measurable at less than one absorbed quantum per rhabdomere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectral sensitivities and photopigments in adaptation of fly visual receptors.
TL;DR: Drosophila mutants with anomalous excitation also reveal mechanisms coupling photopigment activation with receptor excitation, and this work has shown that different fly genera have different adaptation responses which allow characterization of photopIGment spectra.
