Summary
This paper discusses the retinal photoreceptor topography and daily responses to illumination in a nocturnal and a diurnal South African rodent.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the topographical arrangements of visual (rods/cones) and non-visual retinal photoreceptors in the Namaqua rock mouse and the four striped field mouse.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses how different lighting conditions affect the daily rhythms of the rodents studied.
