Fig. 11. Photomicrograph of a horizontal section through an otocyst in a RA-treated Xenopus. HRP was applied to a preotic ganglion (just off bottom left of micrograph). Note how axons (arrows) are wrapped around the otocyst and peripheral neurons lie adjacent to its lateral wall (curved arrows). These abnormal axon and neuron positions in RA-treated animals result in the anomalous labelling of postotic neurons from preotic HRP applications, and vice versa. Scale bar is 50um.
