From: Genome-wide survey and expression analysis of the bHLH-PAS genes in the amphioxus Branchiostoma floridae reveal both conserved and diverged expression patterns between cephalochordates and vertebrates

Expression of BfHifα . In situ hybridization of BfHifα with antisense probe and with sense probe. (A-H) From blastula to mid-neurula, BfHifα is ubiquitously expressed at a low level. (I,J) In two-day larvae, localized expression is found in the cerebral vesicle (arrow). (K,L) Cryosections of an amphioxus juvenile show BfHifα expression in the central nervous system (arrows), the pharyngeal bars (arrowheads), and the intestine (open arrowhead). The scale bar in A applies to A-J. Blastoporal views are labeled as ‘bp’, and panels E-J are lateral views; ‘d’ denotes the dorsal side of the larva in I. In E-H, anterior is to the left; in I and J, anterior is to the upper left.
