The visual opsins of the starry flounder (Platichthys stellatus), a new model for studying the physiological and molecular basis of fish vision and light sensitivity.
Ray-finned fish from a diversity of distantly related lineages have remarkably large visual opsin repertoires. Starry flounder (Platichthys stellatus) development, morphology, life history, and behavior make this species especially suitable for experiments designed to determine why fish have so many...
