Photoreceptors: unconventional ways of seeing.

Naryttza N Diaz1, Simon G Sprecher.   

Abstract

Animals perceive light typically by photoreceptor neurons assembled in eyes, but some also use non-eye photosensory neurons. Multidendritic neurons in the body wall of Drosophila larvae have now been shown to use an unconventional phototransduction mechanism to sense light.
