Results
Specimen 3e: embryonic day 8.5; Hesx1tm1Icar/Hesx1tm1Icar (more )
Note: This embryo contains 14 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: prosencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3e Expression is present in the commissural plate, but its domain is greatly reduced in the mutant compared to what is seen in wild type.
TS14: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3e Expression is present in the midbrain-hindbrain boundary. Its domain is similar in mutants and wild type.
TS14: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3e Expression is present in the midbrain-hindbrain boundary. Its domain is similar in mutants and wild type.

Specimen 3f: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: This embryo contains 14 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: prosencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3f Expression is present in the commissural plate.
TS14: future hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 3f Expression is present in the midbrain-hindbrain boundary.
TS14: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3f Expression is present in the midbrain-hindbrain boundary.

Specimen 3g: embryonic day 10.0; Hesx1tm1Icar/Hesx1tm1Icar (more )
Note: This embryo contains 30 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS16: future forebrain Present Regionally restricted 3g Expression is present in the commissural plate, but its domain is greatly reduced in the mutant compared to what is seen in wild type.
TS16: nasal pit Present 3g Expression is present in the olfactory placode, but its domain is greatly reduced in the mutant compared to what is seen in wild type.

Specimen 3h: embryonic day 10.0 (more )
Note: This embryo contains 30 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS16: future forebrain Present Regionally restricted 3h Expression is present in the commissural plate.
TS16: nasal pit Present 3h Expression is present in the olfactory placodes.
