Figure 3

Expression of Gm-dpp during appendage development. (A, E, I) trunk legs. (B, F, J) maxilla. (C, G, K) mandible. (D, H, L) antenna). The arrows in A, E, I, D, H, L point to the distal expression domain in the trunk legs and the antenna, and denote the border of this domain against the ventral side of the appendage, where no Gm-dpp expression is detected. The arrows in B, F, G, K point to a ventral expression domain in the gnathal appendages. In all panels arrowheads denote expression along the dorsal side. The asterisk in K denotes expression in the external lobe. The asterisk in D denotes expression in the antennal neuromere at the base of the antenna. The asterisk in L denotes expression within the base of the antenna. The square in L is located next to a weak ring of expression in the antenna. Stages are as indicated in the top right corner the panels. Abbreviations: max, maxilla; mdb, mandible; ant, antenna.
