B. Average and maximum strength
Average synchrony strength 8.0 ± 4.7% (15) 9.8 ± 5.9% (17) 13.4 ± 10.7% (4) 10.0 ± 10.0% (20) 7.7 ± 1.9% (6) 12.0 ± 14.7% (2)
Maximum synchrony strength 17.7% 24.1% 26.3% 46.9% 10.1% 22.5%

The numbers in parentheses represent the sample sizes. All tightly correlated cell pairs had receptive fields of the same sign except one XA–XA cell pair.
