“…Moreover, cat LGN features anatomical connections between monocular layers that are either absent or less prominent in primates (Hayhow, 1958, Laties and Sprague, 1966, Guillery and Colonnier, 1970, Sanderson et al, 1971, Saini et al, 1981. Accordingly, responses of the vast majority of cat LGN cells modulate under binocular stimulation, whereas only a small minority of LGN neurons in the macaque seem to be sensitive to both eyes (see Dougherty et al, 2018 for a more extensive discussion of species differences). Our results suggest that despite these species differences, monocular neurons in primary visual cortex of both cats and monkeys exhibit binocular modulation.…”
