The firing rate of visual cortical neurons typically changes substantially during a sustained visual stimulus. To assess whether, and to what extent, the information about shape conveyed by neurons in visual area V2 changes over the course of the response, we recorded the responses of V2 neurons in awake, fixating monkeys while presenting a diverse set of static shape stimuli within the classical receptive field. We analyzed the time course of various measures of responsiveness and stimulus-related response modulation at the level of individual cells and of the population. For a majority of V2 cells, the response modulation was maximal during the initial transient response (40–80 ms after stimulus onset). During the same period, the population response was relatively correlated, in that V2 cells tended to respond similarly to specific subsets of stimuli. Over the ensuing 80–100 ms, the signal-to-noise ratio of individual cells generally declined, but to a lesser degree than the evoked-response rate during the corresponding time bins, and the response profiles became decorrelated for many individual cells. Concomitantly, the population response became substantially decorrelated. Our results indicate that the information about stimulus shape evolves dynamically and relatively rapidly in V2 during static visual stimulation in ways that may contribute to form discrimination.

AbstractThe organization of the cortex located immediately anterior to the second visual area (V2), i.e., the third tier visual cortex, remains controversial, especially in New World primates. In particular, there is lack of consensus regarding the exact location and extent of the lower visual quadrant representation of the third visual area V3 (or ventrolateral posterior –VLP – of a different nomenclature). Microelectrode and connectional mapping studies have revealed the existence of an upper visual quadrant representation abutting dorsal V2 anteriorly, and bordered medially and laterally by representations of the lower visual quadrant. It remains unclear whether these lower field regions are both part of a single area V3, which is split into two patches by an interposed region of upper field representation, or whether they are the lower field representations of two different areas, the dorsomedial area (DM) and area V3/VLP, respectively. To address this question, we quantitatively analyzed the patterns of corticocortical afferent connections labeled by tracer injections targeted to these two lower field regions in the dorsal aspect of the third tier cortex. We found different inter-areal connectivity patterns arising from these two regions, strongly suggesting that they belong to two different visual areas. In particular, our results indicate that the dorsal aspect of the third tier cortex consists of two distinct areas: a full area DM, representing the lower quadrant medially, and the upper quadrant laterally, and the lower quadrant representation of V3/VLP, located laterally to upper field DM. DM is predominantly connected with areas of the dorsal visual stream, and V3/VLP with areas of the ventral stream. These results prompt further functional investigations of the third tier cortex, as previous studies of this cortical territory may have pooled response properties of two very different areas into a single area V3.
