Abstract
The uncrossed visual pathways to the principal primary optic centers of hooded rats are substantially larger than those of albino rats. This provides an anatomical basis for the results of a recent study on behavior which showed differences in interocular transfer in the two varieties.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
