Corticocortical connections of area F3 (SMA‐proper) and area F6 (pre‐SMA) in the macaque monkey

The monkey mesial area 6 comprises two distinct cytoarchitectonic areas: F3 [supplementary motor area properly defined (SMA‐proper)], located caudally, and F6 (pre‐SMA), located rostrally. The aim of the present study was to describe the corticocortical connections of these two areas. To this purpose restricted injections of neuronal tracers (wheat germ‐agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase, fluorescent tracers) were made in different somatotopic fields of F3, F6, and F1 (area 4) and their transport plotted.
