Spatial and temporal frequency selectivity of neurons in visual cortical area V3A of the macaque monkey.

Abstract:

:Response properties of neurons in V3A were studied at a retinal eccentricity of 2-4 deg. The distributions of spatial frequency bandwidths and orientation bandwidths were similar to those of neurons in V1. Peaks of spatial frequency tuning curves ranged from 0.35 to 8.0 c/deg with a mean of 1.75 c/deg. Most V3A cells showed lowpass or, less often, broad bandpass temporal frequency selectivity. The mean direction selectivity index was 0.41. The response properties of cells in V3A differed most from those in V1 with respect to the larger receptive field widths in V3A averaging about 4 deg, the consequent larger number of cycles of the preferred grating that fall within the receptive field, and the previously reported profound response suppression incurred when patches of the preferred grating are extended both within and beyond the classical receptive field. The response properties of cells in V3A differed most from those in V3 in that V3A neurons are much less selective to the speed and direction of stimulus motion than are neurons in V3. The overall response properties of cells in V3A are consistent with anatomical evidence that places this cortical area in the visual pathway from V3A to V4 and then to IT.
