FIG. 5. (a) Excerpts from the photorecord of case SI 719,
prepared by transplantation of anterior (3 o'clock) germinal cells
from the right eye of a stage-33 pigmented XB donor embryo into the
right eye of a stage-35 albino host embryo; magnification x 17. (b)
Blow-up (x3) of the healed transplant at 3 days postoperation,
showing tissue that had become postmitotic before stage 44 and the
relation of the transplant to the pupil (P) and ventral fissure (VF).
(c-e) Montages from x2.5 (c) or x2 (d, e) blow-ups of the pair of
views shown in a for the corresponding timepoint. The last montage
(e) is prepared from only the dorsolateral (DL) and anteromedial
(AM) views and labeled with the cumulative record of proximodistal
cell birthdates. Note that the rotation of views is somewhat oblique,
biased toward dorsal in views of the front of the eye at later stages;
this choice of views is because germinal descendants of the transplant
were gradually displaced from anterior to more dorsal positions
over time, and therefore, the mature sector veers from anterior on the
back of the eye toward dorsal on the front of the eye. Image published in: Hunt RK et al. (1987) Copyright © 1987. Image reproduced with permission of the publisher and the copyright holder.
