Spatial summation of cone mechanisms in goldfish.

Abstract:

:Experiments were performed to evaluate the spatial summation areas of the u.v.-, blue-, green- and red-sensitive cone mechanisms of goldfish. All the cone mechanisms were in compliance of Ricco's law, summing target radiance linearly over a certain range of target diameters with an average slope of 2.4. The critical diameters of the blue-, green- and red-sensitive cone mechanisms were all close to 6 deg. However, the critical diameter for the u.v.-sensitive cone mechanism was 8.0 deg, clearly different form than other cone mechanisms. The observation that the u.v.-sensitive cone mechanism has a larger spatial summation area suggests that u.v.-sensitive ganglion cells may have larger receptive field centers.

  • Contrast gain mechanism or transient channel? Why the effects of a background pattern alter over time.

    abstract::If a brief test pulse is presented on a prolonged background pedestal, it is strongly masked if presented at the start of the pedestal, and is only weakly masked if presented 200 ms after the start. This has been suggested to occur due to contrast gain mechanisms that reduce the representation of the pedestal and ther...
