Effects of kita, ltk, and csf1ra mutation across species. (A) Pattern phenotypes of wild-type and mutant D. rerio, D. aesculapii, and D. aff. albolineatus. Boxed regions are shown at higher magnification in inset, illustrating yellow-orange xanthophores, or their absence in csf1ra mutants. Arrowheads denote iridescent iridophores, missing in ltk mutants. (B–E) Transitions in morphospace resulting from single locus mutations. In each plot, arrows point from the wild type of each species to its corresponding mutant. (B) Effects of csf1ra mutation on pattern strength and orientation in three Danio species. (C) Effects of kita mutation on pattern strength and orientation in three Danio species. (D) Effects of ltk mutation on pattern strength and orientation in two Danio species.
