  • Title: Longitudinal continuity of the subrhabdomeric cisternae in the photoreceptors of the compound eye of the drone, Apis mellifera.
    Author: Skalska-Rakowska JM, Baumgartner B.
    Journal: Experientia; 1985 Jan 15; 41(1):43-5. PubMed ID: 3967737.
    Abstract:
    It is shown that the subrhabdomeric cisternae of the honey bee drone photoreceptor cell constitute a single structure with a continuous lumen, that extends over at least 15 micron and perhaps the whole length of the cell. In this case, the structure of the cisternae might subserve the propagation of light adaptation along the cell.
