Evidence for the presence of two 24-h rhythms 180 degrees out of phase in the pineal gland of male Pirbright-White guinea pigs as monitored by counting "synaptic" ribbons and spherules.

abstract：:Multisensory integration is known to create a more robust and reliable perceptual representation of one's environment. Specifically, a congruent auditory input can make a visual stimulus more salient, consequently enhancing the visibility and detection of the visual target. However, it remains largely unknown whether ...
