Figure 1. Competence of neural plate border ectoderm to form RB sensory neurons (A) Schematic diagram of stage 11.5 Xenopus laevis embryo, vegetal view with the neural plate shaded in yellow, showing the region from which intermediate ( and lateral ( neural plate explants were taken to determine the competence of these tissues. (B, C) Intermediate (np and lateral (np neural plate explants were taken from stage 11.5â12 embryos and allowed to develop until stage-matched intact embryos reached stage 24â25. Intermediate neural plate explants stained negative for XHox11L2 expression (B), while lateral neural plate explants stained positive (C). (A) Modified from Nieuwkoop and Faber, 1994.
