Variety of genotypes in males diagnosed as dichromatic on a conventional clinical anomaloscope.

Abstract excerpt

The hypothesis that dichromatic behavior on a clinical anomaloscope can be explained by the complement and arrangement of the long- (L) and middle-wavelength (M) pigment genes was tested.
