Neurons destined for each region of the neocortex are known to
arise approximately in an "inside-to-outside" sequence from a
pseudostratified ventricular epithelium (PVE). This sequence is
initiated rostrolaterally and propagates caudomedially. Moreover, independently of location in the PVE, the neuronogenetic
sequence in mouse is divisible into 11 cell cycles that occur over a
6 d period. Here we use a novel "birth hour" method that
identifies small cohorts of neurons born during a single 2 hr period,
i.e., 10-20% of a single cell cycle, which corresponds to ~1.5% of
the 6 d neuronogenetic period. This method shows that neurons
arising with the same cycle of the 11 cycle sequence in mouse have
common laminar fates even if they arise from widely separated positions on the PVE (neurons of fields 1 and 40) and therefore arise at different embryonic times. Even at this high level of temporal resolution, simultaneously arising cells occupy more than one cortical
layer, and there is substantial overlap in the distributions of cells
arising with successive cycles. We demonstrate additionally that the
laminar representation of cells arising with a given cycle is little if
at all modified over the early postnatal interval of histogenetic
cell death. We infer from these findings that cell cycle is a
neuronogenetic counting mechanism and that this counting mechanism is
integral to subsequent processes that determine cortical laminar fate.
