## Abstract In the present study the size of large samples of cells and the relative frequency of Y‐cells were measured in the lateral geniculate nucleus of monocularly‐deprived and reverse‐sutured cats. Due to deprivation large cells shrink more than smaller cells. This shrinkage is irreversible e

We tested the hypothesis that geniculate X cells are the neural substrate of psychophysically identified pattern channels and that geniculate Y cells are the neural substrate of psychophysically identified flicker channels. The hypothesis was tested by measuring the relative sensitivity of isolated
