Abstract

roup II fibers can make both monosynaptic and oligosynaptic connections with homonymous and synergist hind-limb alpha motoneurons. A large number of spindle group II afferent fibers exist in the cat, and these fibers are roughly the same in number as the Ia fibers in all muscles in which they have been counted. It is highly possible that the same is true in humans, judging from the distribution of fibers of different diameter in the dorsal roots of the human lumbar spinal cord.
