Description:
Color-selective spatial adaptation of the short-wavelength, or blue-sensitive, pathway was demonstrated. The adaptation was orientation selective and strongly monocular. Adaptation was assessed by measuring visibility thresholds for monochromatic gratings in subjects adapted to high-contrast violet gratings designed to stimulate only blue-sensitive cones. The results showed spatially selective, adaptable channels within the short-wavelength pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stromeyer, C F 3rd -- Kronauer, R E -- Madsen, J C -- Cohen, M A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1980 Feb 1;207(4430):555-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7352270" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
