  		Fig. 1. Proportion of clones (the outer circle) and clusters (the inner circle) for the different classes of genes that are specifically expressed in epidermis (A), nervous system (B), endoderm (C), mesenchyme (D), notochord (E) or muscle (F). The classification of genes is shown in Table 1. Real numbers of genes are listed in Table 4.

  		Fig. 2. Whole-mount in situ hybridization showing the gene expression profile specific to organs and/or tissues in Ciona intestinalis tailbud embryos. Organs and tissues where the gene is specifically expressed are shown in the bottom left-hand corner, while the clone numbers are indicated in the top right-hand corner. Arrowheads in D indicate epithelial sensory cells. br, brain; endo, endoderm; es, endodermal strand; mes, mesenchyme; mus, muscle; nc, nerve cord; noto, notochord; pap, papilla; TLC, trunk lateral cells; TVC, trunk ventral cells. See text for details. Scale bar: 100 µm.
