Fig. 9. Summary of the characteristics of type I, type II and type III units.
Box-and-whisker plots are shown representing median values and 10, 25, 75 and
90 percentiles as well as data points below the 10th percentile and above the
90th percentile. (A) Slopes of regression lines fitted to flow-response
functions (see Fig. 1A). (B)
Masking of dipole-evoked discharge rate in running water. Integrals of
rate-level functions measured in running water are expressed as percentage
integrals of rate-level functions measured in still water (see
Fig. 1B). (C) Masking of
phase-coupling to the vibrating sphere. Integrals of response functions
measured in running water are expressed as percentage integrals of response
functions measured in still water (see Fig.
1C). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences
(U-test, P
0.05). n.s., no difference
(P>0.05).
