Abstract: For efficient coding, sensory systems need to adapt to the distribution of signals to which they are exposed. In vision, natural scenes above and below the horizon differ in the distribution of chromatic and achromatic features. Consequently, many species differentially sample light in the sky and on the ground using an asymmetric retinal arrangement of short- (S, "blue") and medium- (M, "green") wavelength-sensitive photoreceptor types. Here, we show that in mice this photoreceptor arrangement provides for ne… Show more

“…In several cases, intra-retinal variation in spectral sensitivities (and ganglion cell densities) has been shown to correlate with variation in the light environment (Baden et al, 2013;Briscoe et al, 2003;Owens et al, 2012;Temple et al, 2010;Dalton et al, 2014). The backgrounds viewed by different retinal regions differ spectrally, both for aquatic and terrestrial organisms (Dalton et al, 2014;Endler, 1993;Munz and McFarland, 1977).…”

“…The backgrounds viewed by different retinal regions differ spectrally, both for aquatic and terrestrial organisms (Dalton et al, 2014;Endler, 1993;Munz and McFarland, 1977). A simple example is the difference between the sky and the land, a dorsalventral difference that has a profound effect on the retinal design of most terrestrial animals (Baden et al, 2013).…”

“…When starved for food, mice are diurnal and use dichromatic vision for guiding their actions in the field (Jacobs et al 2004;Daan et al 2011;Baden et al 2013). Through their small eyes with afoveate retinas, the world looks blurred and lacks the rich detail experienced by humans, whose vision is 100 times sharper.…”
