title: Cells of origin of avian postsynaptic dorsal column pathways.
abstract: Whereas in the cervical spinal cord of pigeons lamina IV and medial lamina V neurons are at the origin of postsynaptic pathways to the dorsal column nuclei, lumbar lamina IV neurons do not project substantially beyond the cervical enlargement. There is, however a distinct group of medially located lumbar lamina V neurons which projects ipsilaterally to the dorsal column nuclei.
