TS11: future spinal cord neural fold Weak 4I
Specimen 7C: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: This is a ventral view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: rhombomere 1 Trace 7C Expression is mostly absent from rhombomere 1.
TS17: hindbrain lateral wall Present 7C Expression is present in a broad area in the medial basal plate, excluding the floor plate. It is segmentally arranged.
Specimen 7F: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: This is a cross section at the level of the otic vesicle.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: hindbrain lateral wall Present 7F
TS17: hindbrain ventricular layer Absent 7F
Specimen 7I: embryonic day 11.0 (more )
Note: This is a ventral view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS18: rhombomere 1 Trace 7I Expression is mostly absent from rhombomere 1.
TS18: hindbrain lateral wall Present Regionally restricted 7I Expression is present in a broad area in the medial basal plate, excluding the floor plate. It is segmentally arranged.
Specimen 8B: embryonic day 11.0-11.5 (more )
Note: This is a lateral view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: midbrain Strong Regionally restricted 8B There is strong expression in the pretectum. Expression is also present in a single, longitudinal stripe through the caudal two-thirds of the mesencephalon.
TS19: diencephalon Strong Regionally restricted 8B There is strong staining in the whole epithalamus and ventral thalamus. Staining in the dorsal thalamus is weak and non-existent in the hypothalamus.
TS19: telencephalon Strong 8B
TS19: hindbrain Present 8B
Specimen 8D: embryonic day 11.0-11.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: midbrain Strong Regionally restricted 8D There is strong staining in the pretectum. In the anterior it is in dispersed cells, in the posterior it is in cells of the basal plate underlying the ventricular zone.
TS19: diencephalon Strong Regionally restricted 8D There is strong staining in the whole epithalamus and ventral thalamus. Staining in the dorsal thalamus is weak and non-existent in the hypothalamus.
