Ultraviolet light provides a major input to non-image-forming light detection in mice
The change in irradiance at dawn and dusk provides the primary cue for the entrainment of the mammalian circadian pacemaker. Irradiance detection has been ascribed largely to melanopsin-based phototransduction [1-5]. Here we examine the role of ultraviolet-sensitive (UVS) cones in the modulation of...
