Skeletal muscle development is altered in Atoh8 knock-down embryos.

(A?H) myoD in situ hybridization; (I?L) myogenin in situ hybridization. (A?C) 9-Somite stage; (D?E) 15-Somite stage; (G?H) 36 hpf; (C,F,H,J and L) are controls and the remainder are morphants with (B) and (E) the severely affected embryos. Expression of the skeletal marker myoD in paraxial mesoderm showed to tendency towards a ventral localization (A,D) or the boundaries of the posterior somites were indistinct(B,C) and a U-shaped somite formation appeared in the morphant (G). Expression of the skeletal marker myogenin provides further evidence of abnormality (I?L).
