Figure 1 XB-myb is expressed in the developing nervous system during Xenopusembryogenesis. Whole-mount in situ hybridization experiments were carried out with XB-myb antisense RNA as a probe and staged Xenopus embryos. A, neural fold (stage 17) Xenopus embryo; arrowheads indicate eye anlagen. B and C, lateral view (B) and anterior view (C) of a tailbud (stage 24)Xenopus embryo. o.v., optic vesicle;n.c., neural crest; mes., mesencephalon;pro., prosencephalon. D, somiteXenopus embryo (stage 28); e, eye;b.a., branchial arches; ot.v., otic vesicle.E, transverse section of a stage 22 Xenopusembryo; mes., mesencephalon; op.ves.,optic vesicle. F and G, transverse sections of a stage 29/30 Xenopus embryo; mes., mesencephalon;c.m., ciliary margin; ot.v., otic vesicle;rom., rhombencephalon. Note preferential staining within the ventricular zone of the rhombencephalon. Image published in: Humbert-Lan G and Pieler T (1999) Copyright © 1999.
