Results
Specimen 3E: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: neural tube Present Regionally restricted 3E Prominently expressed along the anterior neural ridge.

Specimen 3F: embryonic day 9.0; Tet1tuft/Tet1tuft (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: neural tube Present Regionally restricted 3F Expressed in the tips of neural folds curling inward.

Specimen 3G: embryonic day 10.5; Tet1tuft/Tet1tuft (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: neural tube Present Regionally restricted 3G Expressed at the base where the neural tube failed to close, approximating the anterior neural ridge.
