Figure 74. Summary of output networks.

Schematic representation of the contributions of CX output neurons to various subnetworks and their potential functions. Outputs are divided between unilateral (like PFL3) versus bilateral (like PFL2), as those are likely to control different types of behavior (asymmetric vs symmetric), and between columnar and non-columnar, likely distinguishing between orientation-dependent and orientation-independent action selection.

Figure 74—figure supplement 1. PFL1 subnetworks, rationale behind Figure 74.

Network diagram of all targets of PFL1 receiving at least 0.5% of pathway weight from PFL1. We divide the network into three domains: Projections to the ipsilateral WED and PLP. Projections to the contralateral WED through a single neuron, LAL138. Criss-crossing motifs: a set of LAL neurons that cross the midline back and forth. We analyzed these networks, and the morphology of the neurons that constitute them, to construct Figure 74.
