Figure 3

Observed axonal tension across neocortical gyri. Axonal tension (arrows) is distributed circumferentially across the subcortical white matter (dashed arrows), but radially in the subplate and gyral folds (filled arrows). Contrary to the connectivty-driven hypothesis (see section 4), circumferential tension is not observed across neocortical gray matter (Xu et al., 2010).
