Charting of alkaline-phosphatase positive retinal fibers in the lateral geniculate nucleus, as seen at five coronal levels, shows substantial innervation of the dLGN from ipRGCs. The section in A is most rostral, E most caudal. Abbreviations: dLGN, dorsal lateral geniculate; eml, external medullary lamina; fi, fimbria; H, hippocampus; ic, internal capsule; IGL, intergeniculate leaflet; LP, lateral posterior nucleus; MG, medial geniculate nucleus; ot, optic tract; Po, posterior nuclei; Rt, thalamic reticular nucleus; st, stria terminalis; vLGN, ventral lateral geniculate (including parvocellular [pc] and magnocellular [mc] subdivisions); VP, ventral posterior nucleus; ZI, zona incerta.
