Lmx1b is required for the glutamatergic fates of a subset of spinal cord neurons

Table 8 Evx1 and Evx2 are required for lmx1b expression

Marker	30 h	WT	evx1 ^-/- ;evx2 ^-/-
lmx1ba	Mean	8.6	4.8
	SEM	0.81	1.1

Mean number of lmx1ba or lmx1bb-expressing cells in the spinal cord region adjacent to somites 6–10 in 30 h embryos. SEM is the standard error of the mean. n is the number of embryos analyzed for each data set. p value is from a student’s paired t-test comparing WT and lmx1bb mutant embryos. Statistically significant p values are indicated in bold
