| Abstract | During fetal development, the regional distribution of callosal projection neurons in the rhesus monkey's postcentral gyrus changes from a uniform to a discontinuous pattern. To determine if this developmental change reflects the retraction of transient callosal projections, two different fluorescent tracers were injected into the brain of fetal monkeys of known gestational ages. Fast blue was injected into the entire postcentral gyrus of one hemisphere, whereas a second tracer (rhodamine latex beads or diamidino yellow) was injected into the caudal portion of the postcentral gyrus of the other hemisphere. The rostral portion of the postcentral gyrus (contralateral to the hemisphere injected with fast blue) was subsequently examined for the presence of labeled cells. In animals injected early in fetal development, on embryonic day 110 or younger and sacrificed 4 weeks later, there were numerous cells labeled with both tracers. In contrast, very few double-labeled cells were found in fetuses injected at an older age, embryonic day 135. We interpret these findings as showing that early in fetal development, when callosal projection neurons in the postcentral gyrus show a continuous distribution pattern, single cells in the rostral portion of this gyrus possess at least two collaterals, one projecting to the contralateral hemisphere and the other to the caudal portion of the gyrus. Subsequently, many of these neurons retract callosal collaterals while maintaining ipsilateral projections. Thus, process elimination accounts for the establishment of the discontinuous distribution of callosal neurons found in the postcentral gyrus of the mature primate. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
