“…Notably, M cells are the main contributor from V1 to MT and the dorsal cortical stream, which is thought to mature earlier than the ventral stream (Bourne & Rosa, ). As some K cells project to MT (Sincich, Park, Wohlgemuth, & Horton, ; Stepniewska, Ql, & Kaas, ; Warner, Goldshmit, & Bourne, ), these projections likely contribute to MT function (see Eiber et al, for K cell response properties in marmosets). The present results suggest that LGNd is responsible for V1 activation at the time of birth in galagos, and V1 inputs to MT, together with K cell inputs to MT, contribute to MT activation at birth or soon thereafter.…”
