Results
Specimen 1A: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: future diencephalon Present 1A
TS14: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 1A

Specimen 1B,C: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: trunk mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 1C , 1B Expression is in a thin stripe of lateral plate mesenchyme cells at the very proximal margin of the forelimb bud. A similar band can be seen at the presumptive postition of the hindlimb.

Specimen 1D: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: hindlimb bud mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 1D There are two domains, one at the very anterior proximal margin and another, stronger domain in the posterior part.

Specimen 1E: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: future arm mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 1E Expression is in the poserior and in the flank.

Specimen 1F: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: limb interdigital region mesenchyme Present 1F It is not specified whether this ia a handplate or a footplate.

Specimen 1G: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: limb interdigital region mesenchyme Present 1G

Specimen 1H: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: limb interdigital region Present Regionally restricted 1H Expression is restricted to the interdigital mesenchyme.

Specimen 2A,B: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: hindlimb bud mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2B , 2A Expression overlaps with Shh expression (see assay MGI:2388203).

Specimen 2C: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: forelimb bud mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2C The expression domain is proximally restricted and separate from Shh expression (see assay MGI:2388203).

Specimen Not shown: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: limb mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted Expression remains distinct from that of Shh (see assay MGI:2388203).
