Fig. S2. Schematic drawing of the anatomical structures observed in the embryos shown in Fig. 3. On the left, diagram of stage-12 embryo sectioned transversely between the animal–vegetal axis. On the right, a sagittally sectioned embryo; the dotted line indicates the plane of section used in the transverse sections shown throughout this study. Note that the archenteron cavity (definitive gut) provides an excellent reference point for the dorsal side. The red line indicates the Fibronectin-rich extracellular matrix (ECM) that separates the ectodermal and endomesodermal layers, called the “Brachet’s cleft” in Xenopus.
