Pronounced heritable variation and limited phenotypic plasticity in visual pigments and opsin expression of threespine stickleback photoreceptors.

Vertebrate colour vision is mediated by the differential expression of visual pigment proteins (opsins) in retinal cone photoreceptors. Many species alter opsin expression during life, either as part of development or as a result of changes in habitat. The latter, a result of phenotypic plasticity,

Odeen A, Håstad O.AbstractABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Colour vision in birds can be categorized into two classes, the ultraviolet (UVS) and violet sensitive (VS). Their phylogenetic distributions have traditionally been regarded as highly conserved. However, the complicated nature of acquiring spectral sensitivities from cone photoreceptors meant that until recently, only a few species had actually been studied. Whether birds are UVS or VS can nowadays be inferred from a wide range of species via genomic sequencing of the UV/violet SWS1 cone opsin gene.

High complexity of aquatic irradiance may have driven the evolution of four-dimensional colour vision in shallow-water fish.

Sabbah S, Troje NF, Gray SM, Hawryshyn CW.SourceQueen's University, Canada;
The Journal of experimental biology.J Exp Biol.2013 Feb 7. [Epub ahead of print]
Humans use three cone photoreceptor classes for colour vision, yet many birds, reptiles and shallow-water fish are tetrachromatic and use four cone classes. Screening pigments, that narrow the spectrum of photoreceptors in birds and diurnal reptiles, render visual systems with four cone classes more
