Method
Embryos from TL fish were collected, maintained at 28.5°C until the appropriate stage and then fixed by incubation in 4% paraformaldehyde for 2 to 3 hours at room temperature or overnight at 4°C. For embryos older than 24 hpf, pigment was removed by incubation with a solution of 3% H2O2 and 4% KOH for 10 minutes. Embryos were then dehydrated in an increasing dilutions series of methanol and stored at -20°C in 100% methanol until used. Probes for ankdd1b were obtained using the following primers: ankdd1b_fwd: 5’ CTGAAGCTTCTCGTGCAAGGTG 3’; ankdd1b_rev: 5’ GCTCCGCTATTGATGAGGAGCTG 3’. Whole mount in situ hybridization was performed, embryos were mounted in gelvatol and pictures were taken using a Zeiss Axioscope2 microscope couple with an AxioCam (Zeiss).
