Summary of the characteristics of the five cases
| Animal ID | Age (postnatal days) | Sex | Scotoma length (°) | Scotoma width (°) | Scotoma area (°)2 | Number of MT receptive fields inside scotoma | Number of MT receptive fields on boundary | Number of MT receptive fields outside scotoma |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| W2B | 399 | M | 29.0 | 16.2 | 372.7 | 20 | 9 | 16 |
| W2D | 727 | M | 50.9 | 30.2 | 1203.0 | 28 | 5 | 6 |
| W2E | 743 | F | 56.2 | 43.2 | 1883.5 | 22 | 10 | 3 |
| W6B | 420 | M | 35.4 | 16.8 | 497.5 | 5 | 8 | 6 |
| W6C | 984 | F | 36.8 | 20.2 | 586.0 | 10 | 16 | 12 |
A receptive field was considered inside, on the boundary, or outside the V1 scotoma if >80%, 10–80%, or <10% of its area (estimated by fitting a model as shown in Fig. 1E) overlapped with the V1 scotoma. Columns 7–9 report the numbers of cells that went through all tests. Data presented in Figures 10 and 11 included cells not characterized by the flashing stimuli. M, Male; F, Female.
