Fig. 8 mitfa is not required in the stem cell, but is required for survival of direct-developing melanocyte progenitors. A) Graph showing dorsal melanocyte number in mitfafh53 homozygous larvae held at 32 °C for the indicated times and then shifted to permissive temperature, and melanocytes counted three days later. B) Homozygous mitfa fh53 larvae held at 32 °C in the presence of DMSO (top) or AG1478 (bottom) then downshifted to permissive temperature.
