Results
Specimen 1A/B: embryonic day 7.5 (more )
Note: Early head fold.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS11: allantois Present 1A/B
TS11: primitive streak Present Regionally restricted 1A/B Expression was detected within and along the posterior part of the primitive streak in ectoderm and mesoderm.

Specimen 1C/D: embryonic day 7.5 (more )
Note: More advanced head fold.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS11: allantois Present 1C/D
TS11: primitive streak Present Regionally restricted 1C/D Expression was detected in ectoderm and mesoderm of the primitive streak. The expression domain spread to reach the anterior part of the primitive streak. The rostral extremity of expression was further anterior in the ectoderm than in the mesoderm.

Specimen 1E/F: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 4 somite embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: neural ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 1E/F The rostral limit of expression is in neurectoderm located more anteriorly than the node.

Specimen 1G/H: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: 10 somite embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: neural ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 1G/H The rostral expression boundary in the neurectoderm was at the level of the 5th somite.
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 1G/H The rostral boundary of expression in the presomitic mesoderm was at a more posterior position than the 5th somite.

Specimen 1I/J: embryonic day 9.25 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: spinal ganglion Present 1I/J
TS15: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 1I/J The rostral boundary of expression in the neurectoderm was in the posterior hindbrain/upper spinal cord.
TS15: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 1I/J The rostral boundary of expression in the neurectoderm was in the posterior hindbrain/upper spinal cord.
TS15: somite 11 Present 1I/J Expression in mesoderm extended from somite 11 down to the tail bud.
TS15: tail mesenchyme Present 1I/J Expression in mesoderm extended from somite 11 down to the tail bud.
TS15: trunk paraxial mesenchyme Present 1I/J Expression in mesoderm extended from somite 11 down to the tail bud.

Specimen 1K/L: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 1K/L The rostral boundary of expression in the neurectoderm was in the posterior hindbrain/upper spinal cord at the level of the 5th somite.
TS20: spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 1K/L The rostral boundary of expression in the neurectoderm was in the posterior hindbrain/upper spinal cord at the level of the 5th somite.
TS20: vertebral pre-cartilage condensation Present Regionally restricted 1K/L The rostral boundary of expression was at the level of the eighth prevertebra.

Specimen 1M/N: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 1M/N Preferential accumulation of transcripts was in the spinal cord dorsal horns.
TS20: spinal ganglion Weak 1M/N
TS20: vertebral pre-cartilage condensation Weak 1M/N
TS20: gland Weak Regionally restricted 1M/N Lower expression was detected in the adrenal gland.
