Figure 3From: Fgf signaling controls the telencephalic distribution of Fgf-expressing progenitors generated in the rostral patterning center Comparison of Fgf8 and Fgf17 fate maps. Comparison of Fgf8 and Fgf17 fate maps in which progenitors were labeled at neural plate, early neurula, and late neurula stages. Xgal-stained coronal sections through E18.5 forebrains of Fgf8 CreER/+ and Fgf17 CreER/+ embryos on the (A-X) ROSA26R and (A′-X′) TauR backgrounds. Tm was administered at (A-H, A′-H′) E7.5, (I-P, I′-P′) E8.5, or (Q-X, Q′-X′) E9.5, marking cells from E8-E9.5, E9-E10.5, and E10-E11.5, respectively (see Experimental procedures).
