Table 1
L/V: viability. l, lethal; v, viable; sv, semiviable. A, fluorescein-phalloidin stain for stereocilia of inner ear hair cells; M, mshC expression in ear at 48 hours; O, otx1 expression in ear at 24 or 48 hours; P, paxb expression in ear at 24 hours; N, neuromasts present (as seen under microscope or stained with DASPEI). n, normal; a, abnormal. A blank entry indicates ‘not done’. See text for details.
The Cross reference column indicates descriptions of other aspects of the mutant phenotype: a, Malicki et al. (1996); b, van Eeden et al. (1996b).
Total number of unresolved otolith mutations: 8: tf234, tg225, tg254c, th276, th279c, tn218d, to275b, tu242d.
*Boston alleles: Malicki et al. (1996). Cross-complementation with ear mutants from the zebrafish screen in Boston has only been done so far for einstein and keinstein.
