Function of Dbx1 domains in vivo. a, c Cryosections of chick spinal cord electroporated with plasmids encoding mDbx1, mDbx1∆RD1, mDbx1∆RD2, mDbx1∆RD1/2 or mDbx1∆Cter and subjected to DAPI (blue), GFP (green) and either Evx1/2 (a) or En1 (c) labeling (red). GFP allowed to visualize the electroporated side. b, d Quantifications of Evx1/2+ (b) or En1+ (d) cells on the electroporated side relative to the control side are indicated. Each dot represents one section, the horizontal bar corresponds to the average for each condition, and statistical significance is color coded (red p < 0.01 using paired Student’s t test; green nonsignificant). Scale bar 100 µm
