The colour specificity of spatial adaptation: Red-blue interactions
TL;DR: Cross-colour spatial adaptation was found to be interocularly transferred to a significantly greater extent than same-colour adaptation, suggesting that the former occurs at a more central stage in the visual pathway.

Colour inputs to orientation detectors in the human visual system.
C.R. Sharpe,G. Mandl +1 more
TL;DR: Results from psychophysical experiments have shown that Superimposing a low luminance uniform background of one colour upon a sinusoidal grating of another colour has no effect upon a subject's contrast threshold for that grating, and it is suggested that cross-colour adaptation may be the after effect of prolonged inhibition between orientation specific spatial pattern detectors.
