From: Branching angles of pyramidal cell dendrites follow common geometrical design principles in different cortical areas

Figure 1

Examples of Neurolucida drawings of basal dendritic arbors of layer III pyramidal neurons, as seen in the plane of section parallel to the cortical surface, in the seven cortical areas analyzed: primary (M1) and secondary (M2) motor cortex, primary (S1) and secondary (S2) somatosensory cortex, primary (V1) and secondary (V2) visual cortex and prelimbic/infralimbic cortex (PrL/IL) (modified from30).

Neurons in different cortical areas are colored according to the color code used for Figure 4. Scale bar: 100 μm.
