Expression patterns of an Otx2 and an Otx5 orthologue in the urodele Pleurodeles waltl: implications on the evolutionary relationships between the balancers and cement gland in amphibians.
We report the characterization of an Otx2 and an Otx5 orthologue in the urodele Pleurodeles waltl. These two genes, termed PwOtx2 and PwOtx5, share highly conserved expression domains with their gnathostome counterparts at tailbud stages, like the developing forebrain ( PwOtx2), or the embryonic eye...
