    Expression of L-type calcium channels associated with postnatal development of skeletal muscle function in mouse

    Several factors have an influence on the improvement of muscle activity and motor co-ordination of mammals during post-natal development. One of them is voltage sensitive L-type calcium channel function. In st...

    Tuning of photoreceptor spectral sensitivity in fireflies (Coleoptera: Lampyridae)

    Sexual communication between male and female fireflies involves the visual detection of species-specific bioluminescent signals. Firefly species vary spectrally in both their emitted light and in the sensitiv...

    Fly photoreceptors and temperature: Relative UV-sensitivity is increased by cooling

    Intracellular responses from blowfly photoreceptor cells were recorded at various temperatures in order to study the behaviour of the transduction system, with particular reference to spectral sensitivity. wit...

    Receptor Potentials in Invertebrate Visual Cells

    Most of our knowledge of invertebrate visual systems has come from studies on arthropods and molluscs. Relatively little is known about the function of visual structures in other invertebrates. Thus many of th...

    Spectral and Polarization Sensitivity of Identified Retinal Cells of the Fly

    Many experiments, both training and optomotoric, can demonstrate how many insects, especially bees, are able to utilize the information of polarized light. Many concrete facts about this can be found in the bo...

    Direkte Beobachtung der Rhabdomere bei Calliphora erythrocephala (Meig.)

    If the living eye of Calliphora erythrocephala is illuminated “antidromically” (from behind) and viewed through a microscope of medium aperture, the rhabdomeres of each ommatidium within a large area can be seen ...
