From: Laminar profile of task-related plasticity in ferret primary auditory cortex
Laminar profiles of task-related plasticity in high-gamma LFPs from A1. Panel (a) shows the average laminar profile of high-gamma responses to reference noises (Ref.; top row) and target tones (Tar.; bottom row), and in passive (left column) and behavior (right column) conditions. Depth is marked relative to the L2/3 border (see Methods and Fig. 1c). The vertical black line shows when the tone was presented. The color bar indicates that the high-gamma response data are shown as the change in the response magnitude (ΔMAG) relative to the silent baseline before the tone in each trial. The profiles in each panel were normalized to the peak value across profiles. Panel (b) shows the laminar profile of task-related plasticity for high-gamma LFPs, on the same depth axis as panel (a). The color bar indicates that task-related plasticity is shown as either target enhancement (Enh.; red) or suppression (Sup.; blue). Panel (c) shows the CDFs and grand-averages of task-related plasticity for all recordings in L2/3 (red) and L4–6 (blue). Error bars and shading show 1 sem. Stars and the solid comparison bar indicate averages that were significantly different than 0 (p < 0.001, bootstrap test). Population sizes (n) indicate the number of electrodes per average after applying noise rejection (see Methods).
