Figure 2. ThbdPro/+ embryos and placentae are smaller than littermate Thbd+/+ controls in pregnancies of FVQ/QThbdPro/+ females mated to ThbdPro/+ males. The size distribution of ThbdPro/+ and littermate Thbd+/+ embryos and placentae measured at 15.5 dpc is shown. Lengthwise cross-sectional area (A), length of the embryo (B), and placental cross-sectional area (C) were measured from digital photographs taken at a known magnification and resolution. P values were computed in comparison with Thbd+/+ controls. No live ThbdPro/Pro embryos were obtained from these pregnancies; these die in utero before 12.5 dpc.
