The reinnervation of cat muscle spindles by skeletofusimotor axons.
Tests were made to ascertain the numbers of skeletofusimotor axons reinnervating muscle spindles following crush or section of the nerve to peroneus tertius in adult cats. After short periods of recovery there was no change in the proportion of skeletofusimotor axons compared with normal animals.
