Results
Specimen 4A: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: cranial ganglion Present 4A
TS17: cranial nerve Present 4A

Specimen 4B: embryonic day 10.5; Hoxa2tm1Grid/Hoxa2tm1Grid (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: cranial nerve Present 4B The proximal portion of the glossopharyngeal (IX) nerve was absent. A condensation or collapse of the multiple branches of the vagus (X) nerve was seen.
TS17: glossopharyngeal ganglion Present 4B A patch of positive cells was observed just caudal to the second branchial arch, representing placodally-derived cells that contribute to the formation of the petrosal ganglion.

Specimen 4C: embryonic day 10.5; Hoxa2tm1Grid/Hoxa2tm1Grid (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: cranial nerve Present 4C The proximal portion of the glossopharyngeal (IX) nerve was absent.
TS17: glossopharyngeal ganglion Present 4C A patch of positive cells was observed just caudal to the second branchial arch, representing placodally-derived cells that contribute to the formation of the petrosal ganglion.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: embryo Present

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 9.5; Hoxa2tm1Grid/Hoxa2tm1Grid (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: embryo Present No distinct differences were noted between homozygous mutant embryos and their heterozygous and wild-type littermates.
