Figure 11. Comparison of S-cone inputs to parvocellular (PC) and magnocellular (MC) pathway cells estimated from three different studies.
Positive S-cone weights indicate excitatory (‘centre’) S-cone inputs, negative weights indicate inhibitory (‘surround’) S-cone inputs. A, recordings from macaque PC-pathway retinal ganglion cells (Sun et al. 2006b; their Fig. 3). B, recordings from marmoset PC cells in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). Data from the current study (Fig. 6). C, recordings from macaque MC-pathway retinal ganglion cells (Sun et al. 2006b; their Fig. 3). D, recordings from marmoset MC cells in the LGN. Data from the current study (Fig. 6). E, recordings from MC cells in macaque LGN (Chatterjee & Callaway, 2002; their Fig. 5).
