The dendritic spreading pattern of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in motor cortex. (A) The coronal and transverse view of 3D reconstructed dendrite morphology. (B) The apical (carnation) and basal (blue) dendrite spreading curves along y direction in (A). The thin lines are for the single neuron spreading curves and the bold lines are for the average spreading curves of each type. (C) The apical and basal fiber length ratio in different layers. Squared brackets on the right side of the plot indicate the pair of statistics with significant difference for apical dendritic fibers. For mean ± standard deviation of the values plotted in this figure, see supplementary material table 2. The grey dash lines are layer borders. Confidence level is set to 0.05 (p value). Confidence level is set to 0.05 (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.0001).
