摘要
Action spectra were determined for light-induced phase shifts of the circadian rhythm of adult emergence in Drosophila pseudoobscura. The action spectra for advance and delay phase shifts are similar; the most effective wavelengths are in the blue region, with a sharp cutoff above 500 nanometers. This similarity suggests that the same photoreceptive pigment mediates both advance and delay phase shifts.
