Abstract excerpt
We analyzed the ratio of L:M cone photopigment mRNA in the retinas of Old World monkeys, using the method of rapid polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism. The L:M cone pigment mRNA ratio in whole retina ranged from 0.6 to 7.0, with a mean of approximately 1.6 (standard deviation, +/- 0.56; n = 26). There was no change in this ratio with eccentricity up to 9 mm (approximately 45...
