Efferent Control of Visual Sensitivity in Arthropod Eyes: With Emphasis on Circadian Rhythms

Beschreibung

Introduction: Historical Notes, Photoeceptor Adaptation, Endogenous Control of Photosensitivity versus Light Control, Functional Significance of Efferent Control in Vision. Phenomenology of efferent control: Circadian Rhythms, fundamentals of Circadian Systems, Consequences of Circadian Rhythms in Vision Physiology, Distribution of Visual Circadian Rhythmicity, Non Circadian Types of Efferent Control of Adaptation Circadian effectors – many mechanisms: Visual Cells, Pigment Cells, Crystalline Cone and Tract, Summary Transmission of the circadian signal: Hormonal Control, Neural Control, Metabolic Control, Summary. Central architecture of an efferent control system – the scorpion as a model: ENSF – Anatomy of a Bilaterally Symmetrical Architecture, ENSF – Physiology of a Circadian Pathway, Functional Considerations – ENSF a System Bus, Do other Arthropods have an Efferent System of the Scorpion Type ?
