Research Abstract |
Glutamatergic localization and circuits were examined to compare homology of the cerebrum between birds and mammals. Avian hippocampal formation is homologue to Ammon's horn and dentate gyrus in mammalian cerebrum on the basis of glutamatergic projection to the septum. It is possible that the nidopallium is homologue to layer IV of the neocortex in mammals. However, homology of other pallial regions remains to be unknown.
