Fig. 8 Effects of microinjections of enigma gene-specific morpholinos on zebrafish embryos. Embryos at the three-somite stage, six-somite stage, nine-somite stages and at prim6 are presented. A-D,I-l,Q,q,S,U,V: Control embryos are shown. E-H,M-p,R,r,T,W,X: The enigma morpholino-injected embryos. A-D: Lateral views of control embryos at the somite stages and 24 hpf are shown (Co). E-H: The enigma morpholino-injected embryos (Mo) are shown. I,J,Q: The myoD expression of control embryos at tail bud, six-somite, and prim6 stage in lateral view. Dorsal views of these embryos is presented in i,j,q. MyoD expression in morpholino-injected embryos is shown at tail bud, six-somite, and prim6 stage in both lateral (M,N,R) and dorsal (m,n,r) views. Lateral (K,L) and dorsal (k,l) views of no tail (ntl) expressing control embryos are shown for tail bud and six-somite stage. The same stages of morpholino-injected embryos expressing ntl are presented in lateral (O,P) and dorsal (o,p) views. In addition, control and morpholino-injected embryos at tail bud and six-somite stage probed for eve 1 and snail 1 expression are shown. Control embryos are depicted in lateral (S-V) and dorsal (s-v) views. Also, the corresponding morpholino-injected embryos are shown in lateral (W-Z) and dorsal (w-z) views.
