Forebrain sections were scored at the level of the epiphysis, which was identified by the presence of islet1-expressing cells (Figs. 8G–J). The dorsoventral height of the neural tube was measured, and the length of the gli2 expression domain (measured from the dorsal surface) was expressed as a fraction (%) of the height of the neural tube.
The first number in the parenthesis indicates the total number of sections scored, while the second number indicates the number of embryos these sections came from.
