Figure 6. In situ hybridization analysis of Wnt16 expression during Xenopus embryonic development. A: Lateral view of a stage 35 embryo showing the expression ofWnt16 in the hypochord (hyc). B: Higher magnification of the embryo in A showing hypochord staining. C: Transverse section through the trunk region of a stage 35 embryo showing Wnt16 expression confined to the hypochord. D: Lateral view of a stage 40 embryo showing Wnt16 expression in the eye and a discrete region of the head ventral to the fin arches. E: Transverse section through the head region shows Wnt16 expression in the surface ectoderm. GenBank accession number, DQ658157. Image published in: Garriock RJ et al. (2007) Copyright © 2007.
