Origin and adaptation of green‐sensitive (RH2) pigments in vertebrates
One of the critical times for the survival of animals is twilight where the most abundant visible lights are between 400 and 550 nanometres (nm). Green‐sensitive RH2 pigments help nonmammalian vertebrate species to better discriminate wavelengths in this blue‐green region. Here, evaluation of the wa...
