Additional file 2: of Analysis of a spatial gene expression database for sea anemone Nematostella vectensis during early development

Observed expression domains of genes with in situ hybridizations stored for multiple stages of embryonic development. The pattern descriptions are ordered in a Microsoft Access database spreadsheet. Shorthand notations: base = base of tentacle; cells = individual cells; syphonoglyph = syphonoglyph side; tuft = apical tuft; wall = body wall. “N/A” means no hybridization image and description are currently provided for this developmental stage. “?” means an entry in the expression summary is provided without a corresponding hybridization image. “none” means no gene expression is observed. “band” means expression is observed in a ring between the oral and aboral ends. “full” means expression is observed in the complete tissue layer. “biradial” means two disconnected expression domains are observed on opposite sides (suggesting a biradially symmetric pattern). “octoradial?” means expression is observed in eight separate domains, possibly suggesting octoradial symmetry. “one side” means expression is present in one side of the embryo, but this side (either the syphonoglyph side or the non-syphonoglyph side) is not indicated.
