Functional implications of species differences in the size and morphology of the isthmo optic nucleus (ION) in birds.
In birds, there is a retinofugal projection from the brain to the retina originating from the isthmo optic nucleus (ION) in the midbrain. Despite a large number of anatomical, physiological and histochemical studies, the function of this retinofugal system remains unclear. Several functions have bee...
