Inhibitory masking controls the threshold sensitivity of retinal ganglion cells

KEY POINTS: Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in dark‐adapted retinas show a range of threshold sensitivities spanning ∼3 log units of illuminance. Here, we show that the different threshold sensitivities of RGCs reflect an inhibitory mechanism that masks inputs from certain rod pathways. The masking in...
