Fig. 5From: Formation and subdivision of the head field in the centipede Strigamia maritima, as revealed by the expression of head gap gene orthologues and hedgehog dynamicsSchematic drawing of combined head gap gene expression (upper panel) in comparison with the dynamics of hh1 expression (lower panel). The boundary between embryo rudiment and dorsal field, marked by a dashed line, is a gradual transition at the early stages, but becomes more defined during later development (compare Fig. 1). df = dorsal field (putatively ‘extra-embryonic’, characterised by lower cell density than the ventral part where the embryo forms) oc = ocular domain, ant/int = combined antennal and intercalary domain, ant = antennal domain, int = intercalary domain. Black arrows in b indicate split between the early otx-B and SP5 domains, red arrows in b and c indicate splits of the hh domainBack to article page
