Fig. 2. Expression pattern of XBF-1, in relation to the expression of N-tubulin, X-Delta-1 and X- ngnr-1. (A) Expression of XBF-1 in stage 15, 32 and 35 embryos, lateral views, dorsal up. (B) Lateral view and (C) horizontal section, (plane of section indicated by a broken line in B), of a stage 35 embryo hybridised with N- tubulin (magenta) and XBF-1 (light blue). High XBF-1 expression is restricted to the telencephalon and olfactory placodes. N-tubulin expression is localised towards the mantle while XBF-1 is localised towards the ventricular area of the neural tube. (D-H) Expression on the anterior neural plate of (D) X-Delta-1, (E) XBF- 1, (F) XBF-1 (light blue) and X-Delta-1 (magenta, arrow), (G) X-ngnr-1 (arrow) and En-2 (arrowhead) (H) XBF-1(light blue) and X-ngnr-1 (magenta, arrow). Expression of X-Delta-1 in the anterior neural plate occurs in an anterior and a posterior curved stripe and that of X-ngnr-1 in two bilateral patches. The anterior stripe of X-Delta-1 (arrow) and the patches of Xngnr-1 expression (arrow) are positioned around the anterior edge of the XBF-1 expression domain. di, diencephalon; FB, forebrain; HB, hindbrain; MB, midbrain; op, olfactory placode; tel, telencephalon.
