Caption RNA in situ hybridization on sections of embryos at various ages. (A-H) posterior is on the right and anterior on the left. Black arrows in A,C,E indicate the anterior end of the primitive streak (the node). (A,C,E,G,I,K,M) Bright-field and their corresponding dark-field (B,D,F,H,J,L,N) images. (A,B) Sagittal section through an early head fold embryo. (C,D) Sagittal section through a more advanced head fold embryo. The section does not pass through the head folds. Longitudinal section through a 4-somite embryo (E,F) or a 10-somite embryo (G,H). The section does not pass through the allantois in E,F. The approximate extension of the primitive streak is indicated in G. (I,J) Sagittal section through a 9.25 day embryo. The white arrow in F,H,J and white arrowhead in H,J indicate the rostral limits of expression. Sagittal (K,L) and transverse (M,N) sections through a 12.5 day embryo. a, amnion; all, allantois; am, amnion; ect, ectoderm; end, endoderm; hf, head fold; mes, mesoderm; ps, primitive streak; ne, neurectoderm; s, somite; h, heart; hg, hindgut; nt, neural tube; s5, fifth somite; s9, ninth somite; fb, forebrain; fl, forelimb; hb, hindbrain; ma, mandible; n, neuromers of the hindbrain; sc, spinal cord; sg, spinal ganglia; ag, adrenal gland; md, mesonephric duct; mk, metanephric kidney; pv, prevertebrae; st, stomach. Bar, 50um (A-D), 66 um (E,F), 100um (G,H), 0.5mm (I,J), 1mm (K-N). Exposure time varied from 3-5 weeks.
