Fig. 2. Identification of rhombomeres in the lamprey. (A) LjKrox20 expression (blue) in relation to the localization of acetylated tubulin (brown) in a stage 25 embryo (anterior is towards the left). (B) Cranial nerve roots (arrowheads) and rhombomere boundaries (arrows) are visualized with the anti-acetylated tubulin antibody. Note that LjKrox20 expression domain corresponds well to the morphological rhombomere boundaries (compare arrows in A and B). (C,D) LjPax6 expression (blue) and reticulospinal neuron (brown) localization. (C) Dorsal view of a stage 26 embryo. Reticular neurons including I1, B and mir have developed lateral to the LjPax6 expression domain at the hindbrain midline. (D) Lateral view of the same embryo. Mth is located in r4, where LjPax6 is expressed at low levels. B, bulbar neurons; I, isthmic reticular neurons; MHB, mid-hindbrain boundary; mir, medial inferior reticulospinal neurons; Mth, Mauthner neuron; Mth', auxiliary Mauthner neuron; V1, profundus ganglion; V2/3, trigeminal ganglion; VII, facial ganglion
