The relationship of retinal sensitivity and rhodopsin in human infants.

abstract：:The red-green (RG) detection mechanism was revealed by measuring threshold detection contours in the L and M cone contrast plane for sine-wave test gratings of 0.8-6 c deg-1 on bright adapting fields of yellow or red. The slope of the RG detection contours was unity, indicating that the L and M contrast signals contri...
