title: Opsin sequences of the rod visual pigments in two species of Poeciliid fish
abstract: The rod opsin sequences from Gambusia affinis holbrooki and Poecilia reticulata were cloned and sequenced. The opsin sequences were found to be 96&middot;8% identical, reflecting the similarity of the rod visual pigment absorbances in these two Poeciliid fish.
