Results
Specimen 6C +/-: embryonic day 8.5; Ovol2tm1Xdai/Ovol2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: surface ectoderm Present 6C +/-

Specimen 6C -/-: embryonic day 8.5; Ovol2tm1Xdai/Ovol2tm1Xdai (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: surface ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 6C -/- Expression in presumptive surface ectoderm juxtaposing dorsal border of neural plate, but ratio of cranial surface ectoderm-to-neuroectoderm reduced two-fold in mutants compared to wild type.
