The impact of fornix lesions in rats on spatial learning tasks sensitive to anterior thalamic and hippocampal damage

•Fornix damage mildly impair spatial biconditional and passive place learning tasks.•Fornix lesions impair spatial go/no-go and alternation problems.•Fornix lesions impair tests making flexible demands on spatial memory.•Fornix connections are not always required for learning fixed spatial responses...
