Fig 2

Double and triple hox13 mutants have reduced fin ray lengths in each fin compared to wildtype siblings.

(A-J) Box and whisker plots for ray measurements of selected rays in each fin. Wildtype siblings, double homozygous, and triple homozygous mutants are compared. The measured fin ray is shown at the top right corner of each corresponding graph. In the legend, green represents a heterozygous gene, and red represents a homozygous deletion. Means are presented for wildtype siblings (n = 6), hoxa13a^-/+, hoxa13b^-/-, hoxd13a^-/-, (n = 9), hoxa13a^-/-, hoxa13b^-/+, hoxd13a ^-/- (n = 11), hoxa13a^-/-, hoxa13b^-/-, hoxd13a^-/+ (n = 8), and hoxa13a^-/-, hoxa13b^-/-, hoxd13a^-/- (n = 10) with maxima and minima represented by error bars. Significant groups were determined using 95% confidence intervals (p < 0.05), and are represented as a, b, and c to show statistically significant differences from other groups.
