Light and electron microscopic studies have been made on degenerative changes in the nervous tissue induced by experimental destruction of the median brain bulb at the 5th day of incubation, in parts of the tecto-thalamo-telencephalic visual system in 13-day chick embryos (in the visual tectum, round nucleus of the thalamus and ectostriatum of the telencephalon). It was shown that to this period tecto-thalamic connections are already formed in the visual system, whereas thalamo-telencephalic connections are, presumably, indirect ones. |
