Pitx2HD mutants grow to adulthood and develop eye defects. (A) Normal gross appearance of wild-type, pitx2HDsny7/sny7 and pitx2csny3/sny3 fish at 5 dpf. (B) Homozygous pitx2HD mutants reached adulthood, but were smaller than heterozygous siblings and had malformed eyes (arrow). Adult homozygous pitx2c mutants were indistinguishable from wild-type siblings. (C) Eye and craniofacial phenotypes in adult fish. Ocular defects of the iris and cornea (arrow) were observed in pitx2HD mutants, but not pitx2c mutants. |
