Genetically reducing foxd3 rescues melanophore development in hdac1col-/-;foxd3zdf10+/- mutants. (A–E) Live images with lateral views of 3.5 dpf embryos. Embryos obtained from a heterozygous incross of hdac1col+/-;foxd3zdf10+/- carriers gave rise to 4 distinct phenotypes. (A) Wild-type that have melanophores present in 4 distinct stripes: dorsal, lateral, ventral and yolk. (B) foxd3zdf10 mutants in which the melanophore migration patterns have largely recovered to resemble the wild-type. (C) hdac1col-/-;foxd3zdf10+/+ and hdac1col-/-;foxd3zdf10+/- mutants whose melanophore phenotype resembles single hdac1col-/- homozygous mutant phenotype. (D) hdac1col-/-;foxd3zdf10-/- double mutants in which there is a reduction in melanophore numbers as well as reduced migration into the lateral, ventral and yolk stripe locations. (E) 10% of phenotypically hdac1col mutants that are hdac1col-/-;foxd3zdf10+/- display a rescue of melanophore number as well as migration into the lateral, ventral and yolk stripes.
