Contextual learning is affected by reducing the immature, adult-born DGC population (A) Experimental design. (B) Illustration of the behavioral procedures. (C) Freezing behavior is reduced in tg mice compared to wt mice in the conditioned context [i.e., context A, t₍₁₇₎ = 2.42, p < 0.027; tg, n = 9; wt, n = 10]. (D) No significant difference between tg and wt mice in freezing behavior in a different context [i.e., context B, t₍₁₇₎ = 0.0052, p > 0.99]. Data are shown as mean ± SEM and ^* denotes statistically significant difference.
