Figure 6 Overexpression of the VT+ isoform reduces mesoderm formation in vivo. Fertilized eggs were injected as described in the legend to Fig. 2 and cultured until they reached gastrula stage (stage 10.5). Whole mount in situ hybridization was performed as described under “Experimental Procedures,” using a probe for either Xbra (A) or chordin (B). The white arrows indicate regions of expression in the control embryos. Scale bar, 0.25 mm. Image published in: Paterno GD et al. (2000) Copyright © 2000.
