Fig. 2From: The homeodomain transcription factor Orthopedia is involved in development of the Drosophila hindgutExpression of Otp during embryonic development. Laser confocal images of Drosophila embryos labeled with an anti-Otp antibody (green). Stages were determined according to Campos-Ortega and Hartenstein (1997) [1] as indicated in the figure. a-c Lateral views of embryos, the anterior ends are to the left. In c the expression border in the ventral nerve cord is shown by an arrowhead. d Ventral view of the embryonic nerve cord, segments T1-A2 are labeled and the border of the nervous system expression is again indicated by an arrowhead. e Dorsal view of an embryonic brain stained with anti-Otp (green) and anti-Nrt antibodies (red) to visualize the primary neurons, the Otp expression domains are labelled P1 (protocerebrum), P2 (protocerebrum) and D1 (deutocerebrum). The supraesoghageal commissure is indicated by an arrowheadBack to article page
