Abstract

Spatial transitions in color can aid any visual perception task, and its neural representation, the "integration of color and form," is thought to begin at primary visual cortex (V1). Integration of color and form is untested in mouse V1, yet studies show that the ventral retina provides the necessary substrate from green-sensitive rods and ultraviolet-sensitive cones. Here, we used two-photon imaging in V1 to measure spatial frequency (SF) tuning along four axes of rod and cone contrast space, including luminance and color. We first reveal that V1's sensitivity to color is similar to luminance, yet average SF tuning is significantly shifted lowpass for color. Next, guided by linear models, we used SF tuning along all four color axes to estimate the proportion of neurons that fall into classic models of color opponency, i.e., "single-," "double-," and "non-opponent." Few neurons (∼6%) fit the criteria for double opponency, which are uniquely tuned for chromatic borders. Most of the population can be described as a unimodal distribution ranging from strongly single-opponent to non-opponent. Consistent with recent studies of the rodent and primate retina, our V1 data are well-described by a simple model in which ON and OFF channels to V1 sample the photoreceptor mosaic randomly. Finally, an analysis comparing color opponency to preferred orientation and retinotopy further validates rods, and not cone M-opsin, as opponent with cone S-opsin in the upper visual field. This study is the first to show that mouse V1 is highly sensitive to UV-green color contrast. Furthermore, it provides a detailed characterization of "color opponency," which is the putative neural basis for color perception. Finally, using an extremely simple yet novel random wiring model, we account for our observations.

摘要

空间颜色转换可以辅助任何视觉感知任务,其神经表示形式“颜色和形状的整合”被认为始于初级视觉皮层(V1)。然而,颜色和形状的整合在小鼠 V1 中尚未得到验证,尽管有研究表明,腹侧视网膜为绿敏视杆细胞和紫外敏视锥细胞提供了必要的基质。在这里,我们使用双光子成像在 V1 中测量了在杆和锥对比度空间的四个轴上的空间频率(SF)调谐,包括亮度和颜色。我们首先揭示了 V1 对颜色的敏感性与亮度相似,但颜色的平均 SF 调谐明显呈低通转移。接下来,根据线性模型,我们使用沿所有四个颜色轴的 SF 调谐来估计落入经典颜色对立模型的神经元比例,即“单-”、“双-”和“非-对立”。很少有神经元(约 6%)符合双对立的标准,它们是针对色边的独特调谐。大多数群体可以描述为从强烈的单对立到非对立的单模态分布。与最近对啮齿动物和灵长类动物视网膜的研究一致,我们的 V1 数据可以很好地用一个简单的模型来描述,该模型中 V1 的 ON 和 OFF 通道随机采样光感受器镶嵌图。最后,对颜色对立与优选方向和视网膜拓扑的分析进一步验证了在上方视野中,视杆而非视锥 M-opsin 与视锥 S-opsin 对立。这项研究首次表明,小鼠 V1 对 UV-绿光对比度高度敏感。此外,它提供了对“颜色对立”的详细描述,这是颜色感知的潜在神经基础。最后,使用一种极其简单但新颖的随机布线模型,我们解释了我们的观察结果。
