Removal of the hippocampus and transection of the fornix produce comparable deficits on delayed non-matching to position by rats.
Rats with radiofrequency lesions of the fimbria/fornix or with extensive aspiration lesions of the hippocampal region (the hippocampus proper, dentate gyrus, and subicular complex) were tested on their performance of a delayed non-matching to position task which had been learnt before surgery. On a...
