Dissected flatmount wild‐type and Zebrafish Dissected flatmount of zebrafish embryos injected with Alx1DN, after Alcian blue staining. The embryos developed an absence of the frontonasal‐derived median portion of the anterior neurocranium (ANC) and a profound hypoplasia of Meckel's and ventral cartilages. In the most severely affected zebrafish, a nearly abrogated ANC was observed. Scale bar: 200 μm. Lineage tracing experiments in control and Alx1DN mutant embryos revealed aberrant migration of anterior cranial NCC when
