From: Differential expression of three galaxin-related genes during settlement and metamorphosis in the scleractinian coral Acropora millepora

Figure 4

Virtual northern blots of the three genes arranged in the order in which they are expressed. The various stages represented on each blot are labelled across the bottom of the blot. Amgalaxin-like 1 expression first appears weakly even before gastrulation and is strong both before and after settlement, but is not apparent in the adult. Amgalaxin-like 2 is expressed exclusively immediately after settlement. Amgalaxin apparently has two isoforms both of which are expressed weakly immediately after settlement and more strongly in the adult. Abbreviations: PC = prawn chip, D = donut, Pre = presettlement planula larva, Post = polyp immediately after settlement.
