FIG. 3. (a) Further excerpts from the photorecord of case SI 2631;
magnification x 19. Growth proceeds from top to bottom (arrows); for
each photographic timepoint, the tadpole age [in days (d) postoperation]
and developmental stage (17) are at the left. At each stage, two or more
views of the eye are shown, and each is appropriately labeled as dorsal
(D), lateral (L), dorsolateral (DL), etc. All three photomicrographs from
the last timepoint (131 days, stage 63/4) were photographed in buffer
after immersion fixation (as in Fig. 2d): in addition to providing an
unobstructed medial view of the eye, the eye can be rotated on its axis
to provide oblique views such as anterodorsal (AD) and anterodorsolateral
(ADL) to optimally visualize the black sector in PRE (compare
with Fig. 2c pattern taken just before eye removal). (b-f) Montages
formed from x2.5 blow-ups ofthe D view and the DL or L view shown
in a for the corresponding photographic timepoint. Boundary characters
established since the previous photosession are bracketed by
arrows on each montage. Note that new boundary characters are added
to the distal rim ofthe PRE and form a cumulative proximodistal record
of the transplant's growth. For reference, the pupil (P) is labeled, and
the proximodistal axis of the sector runs from top down in each
montage. GZ is labeled on the last montage. Image published in: Hunt RK et al. (1987) Copyright © 1987. Image reproduced with permission of the publisher and the copyright holder.
