Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the organization of descending pathways to the
spinal cord in amphibians and reptiles. Non-mammalian vertebrates—such as amphibians …

The projections of primary afferents from rostral cervical segments to the brainstem and the
spinal cord of the rat were investigated by using anterograde and transganglionic transport …

The origin of cerebellar afferents was studied in various types of reptiles, viz., the turtles
Pseudemys scripta elegans and Testudo hermanni, the lizard Varanus exanthematicus, and …

As part of a research program on the evolution of somatosensory systems in vertebrates, the
various components of ascending spinal projections were studied with in vivo and in vitro …

The cerebellum is important for motor control, cognition, and language processing. Afferent
and efferent fibers are major components of cerebellar circuitry and impairment of these …

The ventricular sulcal pattern and the cytoarchitecture of the brainstem ofXenopus laeuis, a
pipid frog which retains a lateral line system throughout life, were studied in transverse Nissl …

The spinal cord of the bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) tadpole contains primary neurons, born
during embryonic stages, and scondary neurons born for the most part during larval stages …

This book gives a comprehensive survey of the structure and fiber connections of the brain
