Title: RECEPTIVE FIELDS AND BINOCULAR RESPONSES OF SINGLE CELLS IN VISUAL CORTEX OF ALBINO RAT
Abstract:Receptive field mapping with stationary light patterns showed that,in thevisual cortex of the albino rat,concentric receptive fields fell into two major cate-gories:most receptive fields had very weak...Receptive field mapping with stationary light patterns showed that,in thevisual cortex of the albino rat,concentric receptive fields fell into two major cate-gories:most receptive fields had very weak or no antagonistic surrounds;therest,relatively less in number,had surrounds.For the former,a diffuse light sti-mulus sometimes elicited stronger responses than that elicited by a lightspot.Inthe case of the latter,the diffuse light stimulation was less effective.In binocular segment of the primary visual cortex,58% of the cells encoun-tered could be driven by either eye alone.The percentage of binocular cells andthe ipsilateral input increased while the electrode was moved towards the borderof areas 17 and 18a.Read More
