Table 3. Dendritic length by layer.
Mean values are in bold and indicate either the length of dendrites found in a layer (μm) or the proportion of total dendritic length found in a layer (prop). Values in parentheses below the means indicate the standard errors. Values in parentheses to the right of the cell type names indicate the numbers of cells reconstructed.
