Results
Specimen 3A: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future prosencephalon Present 3A Expression is present at the most rostral level of the medial neural plate.

Specimen 3B: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future prosencephalon Present 3B Expression is restricted to the anterior border of the neural plate.

Specimen 3C: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future prosencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3C Expression is present in the anterior part of the telencephalic neural plate and anterior neural ridge.
TS12: embryo ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 3C Expression is present in the olfactory placode ectoderm. Expression does not extend to the hypophysial placode.
