| a sign-reversing pathway from rods to double and single cones in the retina of the tiger salamander. | signal transmission between rods and cones was studied by passing current into a rod and recording the voltage response in a nearby double or single cone and vice versa. two types of rod-cone interaction were found. between immediately adjacent rods and cones, passage of current into either receptor elicited in the other receptor a sustained voltage response of the same sign as the injected current. these signals were still seen in the presence of co2+, and are probably mediated by the electrica ... | 1983 | 6308225 |
