Phenotype: retinal rod cell amount, ameliorated
Note: This statement combines anatomy and/or ontology terms with phenotype quality terms to create a complete phenotype (EQ) statement. For detailed information on individual terms, click the hyperlinked term name.
Name: retinal rod cell
Synonyms: retinal rod cells
Definition: One of the two photoreceptor cell types of the vertebrate retina. In rods the photopigment is in stacks of membranous disks separate from the outer cell membrane. Rods are more sensitive to light than cones, but rod mediated vision has less spatial and temporal resolution than cone vision.
Ontology: Anatomy Ontology [ZFA:0009275]
Name: amount
Synonyms: count in organism, number, presence, presence or absence in organism, quantitative
Definition: The number of entities of this type that are part of the whole organism.
Ontology: Phenotypic Quality Ontology [PATO:0000070]
