Colour processing in the primate retina: recent progress

Paul R. Martin

Colour vision in the majority of humans is trichromatic, relying on a comparison of the quantal absorption in three different types of cone photoreceptors. The first steps in this comparison process take place at an early level of the visual system, in the retina. This topical review will highlight recent experiments which have advanced our understanding of how cone signals are compared to generate cone-opponent responses in the primate retina.
