Medium/Long wavelength sensitive opsin diversity in Pitheciidae
Abstract New World primates feature a complex colour vision system. Most species have polymorphic colour vision where males have a dichromatic colour perception and females can be either dichromatic or trichromatic. The adaptive value of high allelic diversity of opsins, a light sensitive protein, f...
