Near the interbrain–midbrain junction BSTtr axons in the medial forebrain bundle descend through, and generate considerable boutons in, the ventral tegmental area (Fig. 6V–Y).

General description technique/protocol: Finally, the BSTtr was heavily labeled in experiment BST100, with slight contamination in adjacent regions of the BSTif, BST anterolateral area, and substantia innominata (Figs. 1D,D', 2).
