Results
Specimen 2a: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future forebrain Present Regionally restricted 2a Expression was detected in the commissural plate.
TS15: midbrain-hindbrain junction Present Regionally restricted 2a Expression was detected in the isthmic region.

Specimen 2b: embryonic day 9.5; Otx1tm1Sia/Otx1+, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future forebrain Present Regionally restricted 2b Expression in the commissural plate was unchanged in the mutant.
TS15: midbrain-hindbrain junction Present Regionally restricted 2b Expression in the isthmus shifted rostrally in the double heterozygotes. The characteristic stripe of expression was slightly enlarged.

Specimen 8e: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 3 somite stage. Also stained for Egr2 (Krox-20; assay MGI:5433375).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: neural ectoderm Present 8e

Specimen 8f: embryonic day 8.0; Otx1tm1Sia/Otx1+, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Note: 3 somite stage. Also stained for Egr2 (Krox-20; assay MGI:5433375).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: neural ectoderm Present 8f Expression was normal at the 3-somite stage in the double mutant.

Specimen 8g: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 6 somite stage.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: neural ectoderm Present 8g

Specimen 8h: embryonic day 8.0; Otx1tm1Sia/Otx1+, Otx2tm1Sia/Otx2+ (more )
Note: 6 somite stage.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: neural ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 8h Expression was normally concentrated, although anteriorly shifted in the double mutant.
