a Embryos of the laboratory mouse, Chinese horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus sinicus, RSI), and eastern bent-winged bat (Miniopterus fuliginosus, MFU) with alcian blue staining of forelimbs and hindlimbs across six developmental stages. Scale bars: 2 mm for embryonic images and 1 mm for alcian blue staining. b Ratios of digit III length to cranial width across six developmental stages for the forelimbs and hindlimbs of the two bat species and laboratory mice. Data are presented as mean values ± SD. The numbers of dots represent the numbers of independent biological replicates.
