Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS18: 1st branchial arch mandibular component Absent 7H Expression was absent from mandibular and maxillary prominences.
TS18: 1st branchial arch maxillary component Absent 7H Expression was absent from mandibular and maxillary prominences.
TS18: fronto-nasal process Present 7H Expression still present in frontonasal prominences.
