Fig. 6 Support cell number is not altered in IFT gene mutants. Representative images of neuromasts from (A) ift88 and (B) dync2h1 wild-type siblings (left) and mutants (right) at 6 dpf stained with a Sox2 antibody to label support cells. Scale bars: 10 µm. (C) Quantification of the number of Sox2 positive support cells/neuromast for each mutant. There were no significant differences when comparing wild-type siblings to mutants by unpaired t-test for either mutant (P=0.6982 for ift88 and P=0.5632 for dync2h1). n=9 for both ift88 groups and n=10 for both dync2h1 groups. n numbers were not equal in all groups due to issues with images.
