Fig. 3. MAB4/ENP mRNA expression. (A-F)
MAB4/ENP expression in wild-type embryos at the 8-cell (A),
32-cell (B), globular (C), mid-heart (D), late-heart (E) and walking-stick
stage (F). Arrows in B and C denote the hypophysis without any
MAB4/ENP signal. (G-L) Localization of
MAB4/ENP mRNA in postembryonic stage, at the vegetative
stage in transverse section (G); in the inflorescence meristem in serial
longitudinal sections (H) and in transverse section (I); during flower
development in transverse (J) and longitudinal (K) sections; and during ovule
development in transverse section (L). Arrowheads in H indicate the position
of incipient floral primordia. IM, inflorescence meristem; FM, floral
meristem; Se, sepals; ii, inner integuments; oi, outer integuments. Scale
Bars: 20 µm in A-E; 30 µm in L; 50 µm in F,H-J; 100 µm in G,K.
