Interactions between components of the avian visual system

Pigeons were trained to perform in a psychophysical procedure for determining luminance difference thresholds. After the psychometric data had stabilized, lesions were made in specific cell populations of the tectofugal visual pathway. In one group of pigeons, the lesions were confined to nucleus ro...
