INTRODUCTION According to the transmutation theory of walls the rod retina of nocturnal gecko is transformed from the cone retina of its ancestor lizard. However this transmutation is not to be understood in the full sense that the rod of the gecko retina defined by its outer segment (OS) appearance still retains some structural and photochemical characteristics pertaining to the cone. Therefore it would be interesting to find

摘      要：Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION According to the transmutation theory of walls, the rod retina of nocturnal gecko is transformed from the cone retina of its ancestor, lizard. However, this transmutation is not to be understood in the full sense that the rod of the gecko retina defined by its outer segment (OS) appearance still retains some structural and photochemical characteristics pertaining to the cone. Therefore, it would be interesting to
