Abstract

Stimulus pattern related synaptic plasticity in the luminosity-type horizontal cell (LHC) of isolated carp retina was investigated. The major findings were: (1) repetitive red flashes progressively strengthened the synaptic connection between red-cone and LHC, whereas weakened that between green-cone and LHC; (2) repetitive green flashes remarkably depressed the LHC's red response, but caused little changes in the cell's green response. A competitive depression between different cone signals is suggested.
