Results
Specimen 3G: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3G Expression in the dorsal midline over the caudal diencephalon.
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3G Expression in the dorsal midline over the mesencephalon and in a characteristic lateral stripe at the isthmus.
TS15: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3G Expression in the dorsal midline over the mesencephalon and in a characteristic lateral stripe at the isthmus.
TS15: rhombomere 1 Absent 3G Caudal to isthmus, no expression in the anterior metencephalon, rhombomeres 1 and 2 (r1 and r2).
TS15: rhombomere 2 Absent 3G Caudal to isthmus, no expression in the anterior metencephalon, rhombomeres 1 and 2 (r1 and r2).
TS15: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 3G Anterior terminus of expression in roof of spinal cord at rhombomere 3 (r3).
TS15: rhombomere 3 Present Regionally restricted 3G Anterior terminus of expression in roof of spinal cord at rhombomere 3 (r3).

Specimen 3H: embryonic day 9.5; Emx2tm1Sia/Emx2tm1Sia, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Note: Emx2 and Otx2 heterozygotes were maintained by crosses with CBA mice. Single Emx2 and Otx2 heterozygotes (from F3 and F5 generations, respectively) were mated to generate double heterozygotes, which were subsequently mated to generate the double mutants.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3H Reduced region of expression in the roof; decrease in level of expression laterally.
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3H Reduced region of expression in the roof; decrease in level of expression laterally; isthmic stripe shifted rostrally.
TS15: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3H Reduced region of expression in the roof; decrease in level of expression laterally; isthmic stripe shifted rostrally.
TS15: rhombomere 1 Absent 3H The Wnt1-negative region is expanded in the double mutants.
TS15: rhombomere 2 Absent 3H The Wnt1-negative region is expanded in the double mutants.

Specimen 4E: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 6-somite stage.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future brain Present 4E
TS12: future hindbrain Absent 4E Wnt1-negative region in anterior hindbrain, corresponding to future rhombomeres 1 and 2 (r1 and r2).

Specimen 4F: embryonic day 8.0; Emx2tm1Sia/Emx2tm1Sia, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Note: 6-somite stage. Emx2 and Otx2 heterozygotes were maintained by crosses with CBA mice. Single Emx2 (F3 gen.) and Otx2 (F5 gen.) heterozygotes were mated to generate double heterozygotes, which were subsequently mated to generate the double mutants.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future brain Present 4F Expression is reduced and shifted anteriorly in double mutant.
TS12: future hindbrain Absent 4F Expansion in the Wnt1-negative anterior hindbrain, corresponding to future rhombomeres 1 and 2 (r1 and r2).

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 8.0; Emx2tm1Sia/Emx2tm1Sia, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Note: 4-somite stage. Emx2 and Otx2 heterozygotes were maintained by crosses with CBA mice. Single Emx2 (F3 gen.) and Otx2 (F5 gen.) heterozygotes were mated to generate double heterozygotes, which were subsequently mated to generate the double mutants.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future brain Weak Authors state that Wnt1 expression is faint in double mutants at the 4-somite stage.

Specimen 8A: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: diencephalon Present 8A
TS17: midbrain Present 8A
