Fig 6

Phenotypic similarities in the dorsal fin rays between the triple hox13 mutants and acanthomorph spiny rays.

(A) Alizarin red staining of skeleton of the dorsal fins of triple hox13 mutant, wildtype M. auratus, and wildtype zebrafish. Red text indicates the decrease or absence of a listed trait, while green text represents the presence or relative increase of a listed trait. Scale bars, 1mm. (B) Alizarin red staining on triple hox13 mutant dorsal fin rays and M. auratus dorsal spiny rays. Two rays or spines are shown in each image. Triple mutant rays and spines are shown approximately halfway down the proximal-distal axis, and soft rays are shown at the first point of bifurcation. Scale bars, 200 µm.
