Figure Caption

Fig. S6 Maternal-zygotic epcam mutants have unaltered numbers of deposited primary neuromasts. (A) 5 dpf old maternal-zygotic epcam mutants (MZ-/-) and wild-type (WT) controls at 120 hpf, stained with 4-Di-2-ASP for vital labeling of differentiated hair cells in the larval lateral line. The red arrowheads point the deposited primary neuromasts. (B) Numbers of deposited primary neuromasts in WT control and MZ-/- mutants embryos at 2 dpf. Neuromasts were stained by their endogenous alkaline phosphatase activity [80]. Contrary to published data obtained from epcam morpholino studies [53], we could not detect significant differences in the numbers of deposited neuromasts between mutant and wild-type fish.
