General description technique/protocol: In three experiments (BST111, 167, and 171) the PHAL injection site is centered in the BSTmg. Figures 1 and 2 show that these small injection sites are restricted almost entirely to the nucleus, as judged by the distribution of PHAL-labeled neuronal somata. However, partly because of the BSTmg’s tiny volume and irregular shape and partly because dendrites of neurons in adjacent regions may spread into the BSTmg and incorporate the tracer, all three injection sites labeled a few neurons in adjacent regions, particularly the BSTv, BSTdm, and BST anteromedial area—although no labeled neurons were found in the medially adjacent medial preoptic area. The projections labeled in experiment BST167 are illustrated in detail because its injection site is the largest of the three, and because its overall projection pattern is indistinguishable from the other two.
