Extended Data Fig. 6: Thalamic projections to different sensory areas of pallium, as well as the projections to striatum are distinct, related to Figs. 1, 3 and 5.
From: The evolutionary origin of visual and somatosensory representation in the vertebrate pallium
a, Photomicrographs of the thalamus showing distinct subpopulations of neurons retrogradely labelled following dextran-rhodamine (magenta, arrows) and dextran-Alexa 647 (yellow, arrowhead) in the pallial visual and somatosensory areas, respectively, as well as Neurobiotin injection (green, arrow) in the striatum. b, Photomicrograph showing the different injection sites. LPal, lateral pallium; Str, striatum. c, Schematic of pallium and transverse sections of thalamus and striatum showing that distinct subgroups of thalamic neurons target different sensory areas in pallium and striatum. Hb, habenula; Hyp, hypothalamus; LPal, lateral pallium; MPal, medial pallium; nII, optic nerve; ot, optic tract; Th, thalamus.
