Specimen 7A: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: XYZal Fully feminized sex reversed.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: gonad Present Uniform 7A Expression was detected in germ cells throughout fully sex-reversed ovaries as in normal ovaries.
Specimen 7B: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: XYZal Moderately feminized.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: gonad Present Regionally restricted 7B Expression was detected at both the anterior and posterior poles but was not detected in the central masculinized regions of severely feminized ovotestes.
Specimen 7C: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: XYZal Mildly feminized.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: gonad Present Regionally restricted 7C Expression was intense at both the anterior and posterior tips but was not detected in the central masculinized regions of mildly feminized ovotestes.
