Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: nephric duct of male Absent 1E

Specimen 1J: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Labeling was visualized using BM purple. The specimen was also stained for Cdh1 (red) to visualize the epithelium and Acta2 (green) to visualize the mesenchyme.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: nephric duct of male Absent 1J

Specimen 1O: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
