Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: thyroid gland Present 4D
TS20: lung Present 4D
TS20: trachea Present 4D
TS20: pharynx Present Regionally restricted 4D Transcripts were detected in most of the tissues that formed the floor of the pharynx.

Specimen 5A & 5B: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Fig. 5A is bright-field, Fig. 5B is dark-field.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: thyroglossal duct Present 5A/B
TS20: thyroid gland Present 5A/B
TS20: tongue Absent 5A/B

Specimen Table 1: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: heart Present Regionally restricted Transcripts were detected both within the walls of the aortic trunk and within a small patch of tissue restricted to the base of the heart.
TS20: outflow tract aortic component Present Regionally restricted Transcripts were detected in the walls of the aortic trunk.
TS20: pharynx Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in ventral pharynx.
TS20: lung Present
TS20: mesonephros Present
TS20: metanephros Present
TS20: thyroid gland Present
TS20: trachea Present
TS20: stomach Present Regionally restricted Transcripts were restricted to the mesodermal components.
TS20: stomach epithelium Absent

Specimen 6A: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: central nervous system Present Regionally restricted 6A The anterior boundary of lay in the anterior part of the floor of the myelencephalon. The bounday is irregular in shape along the dorsoventral axis of the nervous tissue. These irregularities have been found to be consistent among different embryos.
TS20: medulla oblongata floor plate Present Regionally restricted 6A The anterior boundary of lay in the anterior part of the floor of the myelencephalon. The bounday is irregular in shape along the dorsoventral axis of the nervous tissue. These irregularities have been found to be consistent among different embryos.
