Details of transcripts for which in situ hybridization analyses were performed previously or in this study, with corresponding expression pattern type (see Figure 4) and DGE class as defined according to z-scores in Wnt3-MO and Fz1-MO transcriptomes compared to non-injected embryos (see Figure 7). Transcripts selected from outside the “top 20” under and over-expressed list are in italics. See text for details. O =  Oral; A =  Aboral; IE =  Ingressing/Endodermal; D =  Delayed. endo =  endoderm in 48hpf planula. #  =  no expression detectable in Early Gastrula.
