Chordamesoderm and notochord phenotypes of boz mutants. DIC micrographs of a (A) wild-type (arrowheads indicate sides of the chordamesoderm) and (B) boz mutant embryo at the 10-somite stage demonstrate the absence of chordamesoderm in bozm168 mutant embryos. In (A) the chordamesoderm is shown bisecting the paired somites. The chordamesoderm is missing in the bozm168 mutant embryo (B) resulting in the lateral fusion of somites. (C,C′) At 24 hpf a vacuolated notochord normally seen in wild-type embryos (C; between arrowheads) is completely missing in the boz mutant embryo (C′). (D) Variable expressivity of the phenotype is observed as some boz mutant embryos form a notochord (between the arrowheads) in the tail as seen in this 72 hpf embryo tail. Scale bars, 250 μm.
