Cell types and cell circuits in human and non-human primate retina
2020, Progress in Retinal and Eye ResearchCitation Excerpt :We also consider data obtained from post mortem studies of human retina, and data from studies of marmoset monkeys. Marmosets are small (bodyweight <500 g) foveate diurnal primates with visual acuity comparable to that of humans (the marmoset eye is 5/8 the size of human eye, and marmoset foveal acuity is ~half that of humans) (Ordy and Samorajski, 1968; Troilo et al., 1993). Marmosets are gaining acceptance as an ideal experimental model non-human primate (Solomon and Rosa, 2014; Mitchell and Leopold, 2015), with recent progress including development of germline transgenic phenotypes (Sasaki et al., 2009).
Using electroretinograms to assess flicker fusion frequency in domestic hens Gallus gallus domesticus
2012, Vision ResearchCitation Excerpt :The ERG provides an indication of the maximum possible flicker detection rate of the eye at the level of the retina, prior to temporal summation that may occur further along the visual pathway (D’Eath, 1998). Also, as most of the I/FFF curves and CFF values reported in the literature for various animals, including birds, were recorded using ERGs (e.g. Dodt & Enroth, 1954; Dodt & Wirth, 1953; Ordy & Samorajski, 1968) the data presented here should allow for better ‘like-for-like’ comparisons between the domestic chicken and other species, rather than I/FFF curves derived from behaviour. Four non-beak trimmed laying hens of each of the two commercial genotypes LSL (Lohmann Selected Leghorn) and LB (Lohmann Brown) (eight birds in total) were used in this study (Table 1).
Behavioural assessment of flicker fusion frequency in chicken Gallus gallus domesticus
2011, Vision ResearchCitation Excerpt :As FFF increases with increases in light intensity, the maximum or critical flicker fusion frequency (CFF), which is the highest flicker fusion frequency at any light intensity is often reported. CFF has been used to compare the temporal resolution capabilities of different animals (e.g. Jenssen & Swenson, 1974; Ordy & Samorajski, 1968). In vertebrates there is a strong relationship between CFF and the relative proportions of rods and cones in the retina.
