Dio2 is necessary for normal squamation pattern. (A) Loss of Dio2 function led to more numerous, smaller scales; similar to fish lacking thyroid glands. Visualized in sp7:EGFP transgenics (n = 7, each genotype). (B) Similar to thyroid-ablated tg:Venus-NTR hypoTH fish, dio2 mutants began developing scales later, at a significantly larger standard length (SL; t12 = 20.11, p < 0.0001; n = 7 each genotype). (C) Like thyroid-ablated hypoTH fish, change in timing and size at initiation of scale development was associated with an increased number of adult scales (t12 = 19.84, p < 0.0001). Bars in plots indicate means ± 95% CI. Scale bars, (A) 1 mm. |
