a
NF is Nieuwkoop and Faber staging for
Xenopus
, and G is Gosner staging for other tadpoles.
b
MAGEX is multispecies array for gene expression, with cDNA sequences representing approximately 90%
X. laevis
and 10%
R. catesbiana
selected for involvement in
embryogenesis and metamorphosis.
c
pCAR:TRDN is dominant negative TR expressed only in muscle cells only in the presence of doxycycline. NF53 tadpoles were treated for 2 or 6 weeks on Dox and
harvested at NF56 and 61, respectively. Dox-treated samples were compared to nontransgenic NF56 and NF66 limbs.

0.5-8 nM T3, 10-40 nM T4, 100 mg/L methimazole (MMI), 20 mg/L 6-propylthiouracil (PTU), and 4 mg/L sodium perchlorate (PER).
