Mid‐tailbud Ciona intestinalis embryo expressing GFP driven by the notochord specific cis‐regulatory module associated with the transcription factor Brachyury (green notochord cells). Embryos are counterstained with phalloidin (red) and DAPI (blue) to highlight F‐actin and nuclei, respectively. From José‐Edwards et al., Developmental Dynamics 240:1793–1805, 2011.
