Fig. 4. fork head is necessary for the initiation of sens
expression in the placodes. (A-C) sens mRNA expression is observed in
the salivary placodes of wild-type (A) and
hkbAI7
2 (C)
embryos but not in fkhXT6 (B) embryos. The
arrowhead (B) indicates the continued expression of sens in the PNS
neurons in fkhXT6 embryos.
