Table 1.
Percentages of chick photoreceptors in freshly dissociated cell preparations from P15–P60 retinas. The percentages of class (column 2) and type (column 4) of photoreceptors refer to the total number of photoreceptors (n=1,905), whereas the percentages of a specific droplet colour (column 6) and soma position (column 8) refer to the total number of cones (n=1,561).
