Marker brains for further alignment of anatomical labels. a–o Examples of different marker brains registered to the Allen CCF that helped to align FP based labels in subregions as highlighted with yellow arrows. A/P represents Bregma anterior/posterior coordinates. a–c Chat-Cre:Ai75 brain to delineate (a) the basal forebrain structures including the nucleus of the horizontal limb of the diagonal band (arrow). It was also used to delineate (b) midbrain areas, including the laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (arrow1), the motor trigeminal nuclei (arrow 2), the lateral superior olive (arrow 3), and c the facial nucleus (arrow). d–f PV-Cre:H2B-GFP brain to delineate (d) the reticular nucleus (arrow), e the anterior pretectal nucleus (arrow 1), the substantia nigra, reticular part (arrow 2), and the retromamillary nucleus (arrow 3) as well as f the superficial gray layer superior colliculus (arrow 1), the ventral nucleus of the lateral lemniscus (arrow 2), and the reticulotegmental nucleus of the pons, pericentral part (arrow 3). g–i SST-Cre:H2B-GFP brain to delineate (g) the cerebral nuclei, such as the lateral septal nucleus, dorsal part (arrow 1) and the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis medial division posteromedial part (arrow 2), h the reticular nucleus (arrow 1) and the central amygdaloid nuclei (arrow 2), and i hypothalamic structures, such as the dorsomedial hypothalamic nuclei dorsal and ventral parts (arrow). j–l OTR:Ai14 brain to delineate (j) the dorsal endopiriform nucleus (arrow), k CA2 (arrow 1), the posteromedial cortical amygdala (arrow 2), and l the caudomedial entorhinal cortex (arrow1) as well as the postsubiculum (arrow 2). m–o Cortical layers defined by m Ntsr-Cre:Ai75 for layer 6, n Rbp4-Cre:Ai75 for layer 5, and o Cux2-Cre:Ai75 for layer 2/3.
