Results
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 7.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS11: embryo Absent

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 6-7 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: future midbrain neural fold Present Regionally restricted Authors state that initial expression was detected in embryos with 6-7 somites, in scattered cells in the dorsal part of neural folds of the anterior midbrain.

Specimen 2A: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 2A At the 9-11 somite stage, midbrain expression is intensified and spread posteriorly.
TS13: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 2A Expression also detected in the ventral spinal cord, between the junction with the hindbrain and the level of the forelimbs.

Specimen 2B: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future midbrain Strong Regionally restricted 2B Expression also detected in the ventral spinal cord, between the junction with the hindbrain and the level of the forelimbs.
TS15: future forebrain Present Regionally restricted 2B Other areas of expression included patches in the forebrain above the optic vesicle and in the nose area.
TS15: trunk mesenchyme derived from neural crest Present 2B
