Polarization Sensitivity, Polarotaxis and Polarization-Elicited Optomotor Response in Yellow Fever Mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti)
摘要
In optomotor experiments, Aedes aegypti female mosquitoes responded to rotating stripes of alternating orthogonal polarization directions. Future studies should reveal the possible regional differences in polarization sensitivity of the compound eyes, and which ommatidial retinula cells and in which spectral range are polarization sensitive.
