Specimen 1C: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Note: 18 somites
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: myotome Present 1C Expression specifically in myotomal cells which have formed under the dermatome.
TS14: neural tube Absent 1C Expression in the neural tube is at or below the level of detection at this stage.

Specimen 2A/B: embryonic day 9.25 (more )
Note: 21-24 somites
Structure Level Pattern Image Note

TS15: neural tube Present Diffuse 2A/B Diffuse expression in neural tube at a level roughly comparable to that in the somites.
TS15: hindgut Absent 2A/B Authors report there was no expression in other embryonic structures such as the embryonic hindgut.

Specimen 3C: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: ~36 somites
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: myotome Present Regionally restricted 3C Expression in a mature myotome near the forelimb bud and more recently formed caudal myotomes.
