Comparison between BT and NT neuron STRF subfield duration and bandwidth.

<p>(A) Cumulative distribution function (CDF) of excitatory subfield durations. Solid lines represent total population data. Vertical lines indicate population medians. Dashed lines represent values exclusively from layer 4 neurons (800–1100 µm cortical depth). NT neurons have significantly longer excitatory subfield durations (p<0.001, KS-test). (B) CDF of inhibitory duration. BT neurons had shorter inhibitory subfields (p<0.001, KS-test). (C) CDF of the ratio of excitatory to inhibitory duration. For BT neurons, the temporal duration of excitation is similar to the duration of inhibition (p<0.001, KS-test). (D) CDF of the ratio of excitatory to inhibitory bandwidth. For BT neurons, excitatory bandwidth was greater than inhibitory bandwidth. For NT neurons, the bandwidths were similar (p<0.001, KS-test).
