dmrt2/terra is expressed in the zebrafish kupfer′s vesicle.

(A–F) Whole mount in situ hybridization confirming the dmrt2 conserved expression pattern in the anterior PSM and somites in mice (A–C) and zebrafish (D–F) embryos. Despite not being expressed in the mouse node (dashed circle) (A–C), dmrt2a/terra is present in the zebrafish equivalent structure, the kupffer′s vesicle (arrow) (D–F). (A–C) Ventral views of mice embryos with anterior to the top. (D–F) Dorsal views of zebrafish embryos with anterior to the top. S, somite stage.
