Figure 3. In situ hybridizations were done for mesodermally expressed genes in Xenopus laevis and X. tropicalis embryos. For all panels, X. laevis probes used on X. laevis embryos (first column) and X. tropicalis embryos (middle column) are shown. A,B: X. tropicalis probes used on X. tropicalis embryos (right column). Some X. laevis probes were found to work well on X. tropicalis embryos (A,C), whereas others worked weakly (B,D). For xvent-2, xbra, and derrière, vegetal views of midgastrula stage embryos are shown. For xvent-2, the dorsal side can be distinguished by the absence of staining and is to the right. For goosecoid, dorsal views (animal hemisphere up) of late gastrula stage embryos are shown. For sonic hedgehog (shh), dorsal views of stage 19 embryos (anterior to the left) are shown. For myoD, α-globin (globin), nkx2.5, and pax-8, lateral views (anterior to the left) of stage 24, 32, 26, and 27 embryos are shown, respectively. For hoxD10, posterior views (dorsal side up) are shown for stage 27 embryos.Download figure to PowerPoint
