  • Title: [Effect of neonatal unilateral enucleation on the development of orientation selectivity in kitten primary visual cortex].
    Author: Fregnac Y, Trotter Y, Bienenstock E, Imbert M.
    Journal: C R Seances Acad Sci D; 1979 Nov 26; 289(14):1073-5. PubMed ID: 121263.
    Abstract:
    In normally reared Kittens (6 weeks old), all orientations encoded by visual cells in the primary visual cortex are equally represented. In Kittens of the same age, unilaterally enucleated at birth and reared in identical conditions, 70% of orientation-selective cells preferentially respond to horizontal or vertical orientations.
