Maternal mutants exhibit reduced erythropoiesis and could be rescued in Mdgcr8, but not in MZdgcr8. Whole embryo O-dianisidine staining assay was used for assessing functional hemoglobin in mature primitive erythrocytes in wild-type, Mdgcr8, MZdgcr8, and miR-430 rescued groups at 50 (A) and 74 hpf (B). Hemoglobinized cells accumulate in the yolk sac in wild-type but mainly accumulate in the caudal vein (red arrows) in MZdgcr8 and MZdgcr8 mutants. 10–15 embryos per groups. Scale bar: 200 μm. (C) The touch response was categorized as strong, weak, and no response based on the analysis of the video frames. (D) At 60 hpf, the rescue rate was determined in wild-type and maternal mutant embryos. (E) At 48 hpf, the hatching rate was detected in wild-type and maternal mutant embryos. ****p < 0.0001.
