Fig. 10. Summary of cell proliferation data. The number of phospho-histone
H3-positive nuclei in the immediate somitic area of the uninjected versus
injected halves of manipulated tadpoles are represented. Injection of the
lbx1-splice MO, lbx1 mRNA or lbx1 mRNA plus
myf5 mRNA caused a significant difference in the number of mitotic
nuclei, indicated by an asterisk on the x-axis (paired Student's
t-test, P<0.01). The control MO used is the zebrafish
translation blocking MO.
