Specimen 3.C: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 6-somite stage. Double labeled: blue - Lfng; red - Meox1 (assay MGI:1337797).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 3C

Specimen 3.D: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: 10-somite stage.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: somite 01 Weak 3D
TS13: somite 02 Strong 3D
TS13: head paraxial mesenchyme Present 3D Expression precedes the formation of intersomitic boundaries.

Note: 8-somite stage. Double labeled: blue - Lfng; red - Dll1 (assay MGI:1337815).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 3E Expression domain overlaps with Dll1 expression domain at the posterior edge of the anterior Lfng stripe, while more caudally they overlap entirely.

Specimen 4.B: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: neural tube Present Regionally restricted 4B Expression is seen in bilateral symmetrical stripes at different dorsal-ventral levels: a ventral stripe that appears to border the floor plate, a narrow medial stripe and a broad domain that includes most of the alar plate.
