Spatial control of rhabdom shedding in the lateral eye of the American horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus

Abstract: Membrane leaves the rhabdom of Limulusphotoreceptors either by transient shedding at dawn or throughout the day by light-driven shedding. We examined whether the light trigger for transient shedding and the light drive for light-driven shedding are localized properties of the illuminated photoreceptors or whether they are an array property of the retina. Four experiments were conducted during which the lateral eye was exposed to one of a variety of different illumination patterns for a day, fixed, dissected an… Show more
