From: The genome of a songbird
a, Genomic alignment of an RNA containing a CR1-like retrotransposon element (in blue) and adjacent ESTs, with respective GenBank accession numbers. b–d, DV949717 is expressed in the brain of adult males with enrichment in song nuclei HVC (letter-based name) and LMAN (lateral magnocellular nucleus of the anterior nidopallium), as revealed by in situ hybridization. The diagram in b indicates areas shown in photomicrographs in c and d. Cb, cerebellum; Hp, hippocampus; Meso, mesopallium; Nido, nidopallium; Shelf, nidopallial shelf region; St, striatum. Scale bars, 0.1 mm.
