Retinal specialization through spatially varying cell densities and opsin coexpression in cichlid fish

The distinct behaviours of animals and the varied habitats in which animals live place different requirements on their visual systems. A trade-off exists between resolution and sensitivity, with these properties varying across the retina. Spectral sensitivity, which affects both achromatic and chrom...
