Chromatic organization of primate cones

RE Marc and HG Sperling

The distribution of baboon retinal cones were mapped histochemically by light-stimulated reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium chloride. Blue cones were distributed regularly in the periphery: red and green cones were distributed randomly everywhere. The ordering of cone densities was greeen greater than red greater than blue.
