[Effect of binocular interaction of rat visual cortex neurons]. 1977

S V Girman

In anesthetized rats, out of 135 neurons recorded in binocular area within the striate cortex, 92 (74%) were binocular. 53 of these had well defined, mainly identical receptive fields on the two retinae. The range of relative horizontal and vertical disparity was found to be 5 degrees and 4 degrees respectively. These findings suggest that the visual system of the rat is capable to discover the spatial relationship using mechanisms of binocular fusion, in contrast to data obtained in rabbits.
