Fig. 5

Tooth morphogenesis is disrupted in Pitx2HD mutants. (A-C) Ventral views of alizarin red staining of teeth at 5 dpf in wild-type (A), pitx2HD^sny7/sny7 (B) and pitx2c^sny3/sny3 (C) fish. c5: fifth ceratobranchial; 4V¹, 3V¹ and 5V¹ designate individual teeth. (D) Quantification of tooth defects observed in pitx2HD^sny7 and pitx2c^sny fish at 5 dpf. Tooth malformations were defined as a reduced number of teeth and incomplete tooth formation as shown in (B).
