Results
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 8.5; Wnt1sw/Wnt1sw (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future brain Present Regionally restricted Authors report no differences in expression between mutant and wild type embryos at E8.5.

Specimen 3A: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3A Expression on dorsal and ventral midlines of diencephalon.
TS15: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3A Expression on dorsal and ventral midlines of mesencephalon. Expression disappears from scattered cells on the rostral side of the expressing ring.
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3A Dorsal midline expression interrupted in the metencephalon.

Specimen 3B: embryonic day 9.5; Wnt1sw/Wnt1sw (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3B Expression maintained on the dorsal and ventral midlines of diencephalon and mesencephalon.
TS15: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3B Expression maintained on the dorsal and ventral midlines of diencephalon and mesencephalon.
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3B Dorsal midline expression not interrupted in the metencephalon as it is in the wild type. Scattered patches of ectopically expressing cells in proximity to remnants of the mes/metencephalic ring and near the edge of the cerebellar plate.

Specimen 3C: embryonic day 9.5; Wnt1sw/Wnt1sw (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: midbrain-hindbrain junction Absent 3C In mutant embryos where the mes/metencephalic territory was severely shortened, no ring of expression was detected.
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3C Scattered patches of ectopically expressing cells in proximity to remnants of the mes/metencephalic ring and near the edge of the cerebellar plate. Authors report that expression at the mes/metencephalic junction is often asymmetrical.

Specimen 3D: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3D Expression on the dorsal midline.
TS17: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3D Expression on the dorsal midline.

Specimen 3E: embryonic day 10.5; Wnt1sw/Wnt1sw (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: midbrain-hindbrain junction Present Regionally restricted 3E In some cases, the mes/metencephalic row of expression cells was interrupted.
TS17: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3E Scattered patches of ectopically expressing cells in proximity to remnants of the mes/metencephalic ring and near the edge of the cerebellar plate. Authors describe a short metencephalic extension of the ventral midline expression domain.

Specimen 3F: embryonic day 10.5; Wnt1sw/Wnt1sw (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: midbrain-hindbrain junction Present Regionally restricted 3F In mutant embryos where the mes/metencephalic territory was severely shortened, the ring of expression was either not detected (left side) or contained clusters of non-expressing cells (right side).
TS17: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3F Authors describe a short metencephalic extension of the ventral midline expression domain.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted Expression maintained on dorsal and ventral midlines of diencephalon and mesencephalon.
TS21: midbrain Present Regionally restricted Expression maintained on dorsal and ventral midlines of diencephalon and mesencephalon.
