Circadian rhythms in the Drosophila eye may regulate adaptation of vision to light intensity
The sensitivity of the eye at night would lead to complete saturation of the eye during the day. Therefore, the sensitivity of the eye must be down-regulated during the day to maintain visual acuity. In the Drosophila eye, the opening of TRP and T...
