COA (cortical amygdaloid nucleus) projects to OT (Olfactory tubercle)

Species: Rat
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Fluoro-Gold injected into layers II-III of the caudal olfactory tubercle retrogradely labelled a number of cells in layer II of the posterolateral cortical amygdaloid nucleus.
