Orientation selectivity in the visual cortex of the nine-banded armadillo.
J Neurophysiol, 2017 Orientation selectivity in primary visual cortex (V1) has been proposed to reflect a canonical computation performed by the neocortical circuitry. Although orientation selectivity has been reported in all mammals examined to date, the degree of selectivity and the functional organization of selectivity vary across mammalian clades.
