Fig. 5. Injection of sox9b mRNA partially rescues the mutant phenotype.
(A,B) Wild type; (C,D) Control sox9bb971; (E-J)
sox9b mRNA-injected sox9bb971 larvae,
showing partial rescue of the craniofacial skeletal phenotype of
sox9bb971. Partial rescue occurred in 14 of 85 injected
four-day-old homozygous mutant larvae. (A,C,E,G,I) Pharyngeal arches;
(B,D,F,H,J) Neurocranium. Scale bar: in J, 100 µm.
