Fig. 5. Comparison analysis of interlaminar excitatory communication networks for ALM and VISp.
a The aggregated interlaminar excitatory communication networks for ALM (left panel) and VISp (right panel). The aggregation method used is “weight”. b The individual interlaminar excitatory communication networks of Glu-Grin3a for ALM (left panel) and VISp (right panel). c Bar charts comparing the number of links (left panel) and information flow (right panel) between ALM and VISp for each interaction pair. d Projecting interactions for ALM and VISp onto a two-dimensional manifold according to their functional similarity. Each interaction pair is represented by a circle (for VISp) or triangle (for ALM), whose color and size indicate the functional group and total communication strength (normalized by the maximum), respectively. e Heatmaps of the aggregated interlaminar excitatory communication networks for the five interaction clusters in (d).
