Retina	Anterodorsal nucleus of the thalamus	exists	not known	Cholera toxin conjugated to HRP	Case pg353-4. Soma notes 36 female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-350g. 10 microliters of CT-HRP(.20%-.40%) were injected into one eye ?behind the lens into the vitreous chamber of the eye. pressure injection over 1 min. Terminal notes fibres can be seen in stria terminalis coursing rostrally from these more caudal levels. This pathway gives rise to the thalamic label reported earlier (anterior dorsal, anterior ventral thalamic nuc. and bed nuc. of the stria terminalis.).

Anterodorsal nucleus of the thalamus	Secondary motor area	strong	not known	Fluorogold	Several nuclei of the thalamus were strongly labeled including the paraventricular (PV), mediodorsal (MD), interanteromedial (IAM), anteromedial (AM), paracentral (PC), central lateral (CL), central medial (CM) intermediodorsal (IMD), rhomboid (RH), ventromedial (VM), and RE (Fig. 1M�P). Labeling was particularly pronounced within MD, VM, RH, and RE. Collator note: Swanson Atlas Levels 27-33.		Hoover W.B. & Vertes R.P, 2007

Secondary motor area	Nucleus accumbens	moderate	not known	radioactive aminoacids	[�] label is uniformly distributed throughout the most rostral portion of nucleus accumbens, but quickly assumes a lateral position and eventually merges with label in the fundus striati as one proceeds caudally. Collator note: see Fig. 3B, Swanson Atlas	Reep RL, Corwin JV, Hashimoto A, Watson RT., 1987
Secondary motor area	Nucleus accumbens	light/moderate	not known	Fluorogold	Collator note: small terminal field in the MOs, superficial layers, in the rostralmost part of it. See Fig. 7A, Swanson Atlas Levels 5-6. This is the single case that shows a terminal field in the premotor cortex.	Brog J.S., Salyapongse A., Deutch A.Y. & Zahm D.S., 1993
