Interaction betweenpax8-/-andsox3-/-during early placode development. (A-C) Expression of pax2a at 12 hpf in a wild-type control embryo (A), a pax8-/- mutant (B) and a pax8-/-; sox3-/- double mutant (C) embryo. Dorsal-lateral view with anterior to the left. Scale bar, 50 µm. (D) Box-and-whisker plot of relative surface area of otic/epibranchial domain of pax2a at 12 hpf in control, pax8-/- and pax8-/-; sox3-/- double mutant embryos. Data are normalized relative to control groups, with means indicated by green lines. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences relative to controls (*** P<0.001, Tukey's HSD test). n.s., not significantly different. |
