Stormwater exposure during development reduces the number of lateral line neuromasts in coho salmon. (a) Fluorescent images of DASPEI-labeled coho salmon embryos from a control fish (left) and a fish exposed to 100% stormwater (STW; right). Scale bars = 0.5 mm. (b) There are fewer head neuromasts in stormwater-exposed embryos (one-way ANOVA, F_3,46 = 14.84, p < 0.0001). R = regular (unfiltered) stormwater, F = filtered stormwater. (c) There are also fewer trunk neuromasts in these embryos (one-way ANOVA, F_3,46 = 8.33, p = 0.0002). For both (b) and (c), Bonferroni-corrected post-hoc analyses demonstrate significant differences from control embryos (***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001). N = 6–20 fish per treatment, bars are + 1 s.d.
