Abstract:
Cortical projection of the visual field on the albino rabbit's cortex has been investigated and compared with that in the pigmented rabbit. A lower magnification of the projection of the temporal visual streak (nasal visual field) in the albino rabbit is attributed to the absence of an area centralis-like organization of the retinal ganglion cells in the temporal visual streak in this animal. Cortical single units in the albino rabbit show a lesser variety in their receptive field organization than those in the pigmented rabbit.
