High sensitivity rod photoreceptor input to the blue-yellow color opponent pathway in macaque retina

Small bistratified cells (SBCs) in the primate retina carry a major blue-yellow opponent signal to the brain. Here we show that SBCs also carry signals from rod photoreceptors, with the same sign as S cone input. SBCs exhibited robust responses under low scotopic conditions (<0.01 P*/rod/s). Phys...
