Injection sites of complete PHAL tract-tracing experiments published by the Swanson laboratory 1989–2006 mapped onto a 'flat-map' of the rat brain. Within this diagrammatic construct, the position and relative size of each region is based on a 'fate-map' of its region of origin on the neural plate (itself a two dimensional structure; see [50, 51]). At the time of writing, NeuARt II contains 64 data-maps consisting of PHAL experiments (n = 56), immunohistochemical maps (n = 5), Fluoro-Gold tract-tracing experiments (n = 1), and in-situ hybridization maps (n = 2). Within this paper, we provide a table of abbreviations for those mentions from the text and in Figures. The nomenclature presented here is that of [6].
