)

Structure	Level	Image	Note
TS15: eye surface ectoderm	Present	1A
TS15: optic vesicle	Present	1A	Expression is present in the neural ectoderm of the eye primordia.
TS15: eye mesenchyme	Absent	1A	No expression is seen in the periocular mesenchyme.

Specimen 1B: embryonic day 10.5 (more

)

Structure	Level	Image	Note
TS17: eye surface ectoderm	Present	1B
TS17: optic cup	Present	1B
TS17: optic stalk	Present	1B
TS17: eye mesenchyme	Absent	1B	No expression is seen in the periocular mesenchyme.

Specimen 1C: embryonic day 11.5 (more

)

Structure	Level	Image	Note
TS19: eye surface ectoderm	Present	1C
TS19: retina	Present	1C	Expression is seen in the inner and outer layers of the optic cup.
TS19: optic stalk	Present	1C
TS19: perioptic mesenchyme	Absent	1C	No expression is seen in the periocular mesenchyme.

Specimen 1D: embryonic day 12.5 (more

)

Structure	Level	Image	Note
TS20: cornea epithelium	Present	1D	Expression is present in the surface ectoderm of the eye.
TS20: retina	Present	1D	Expression is seen in the inner and outer layers of the optic cup.
TS20: optic stalk	Present	1D
TS20: perioptic mesenchyme	Absent	1D	No expression is seen in the periocular mesenchyme.

Specimen S1A: embryonic day 12.5 (more

)
Note: littermates were used for controls; their exact genotype was not detailed

Structure	Level	Pattern	Image	Note
TS20: retina	Present		S1A	Expression is present in ocular neural ectoderm.

Specimen S1B: embryonic day 12.5; Chd7^tm1.1Dmm/Chd7⁺, Tg(rx3-icre)1Mjam/0 (more

)
Note: Conditional mutant. these are neural ectoderm-specific heterozygotic embryos

Structure	Level	Pattern	Image	Note
TS20: retina	Present		S1B	Expression levels in the ocular neural ectoderm are reduced compared to those seen in wild type.

Specimen S1C: embryonic day 12.5; Chd7^tm1.1Dmm/Chd7^tm1.1Dmm, Tg(rx3-icre)1Mjam/0 (more

)
Note: Conditional mutant. these are neural ectoderm-specific knockout embryos

Structure	Level	Pattern	Image	Note
TS20: retina	Absent		S1C	Only occasional positive cells are seen in the ocular neural ectoderm.
