Loss of cped1 does not affect craniofacial morphology. (A) Anatomical landmarks used for measurements. Shown are the lateral view (left) and dorsal view (right) of a wildtype zebrafish skull. Landmark positions are labeled in blue. Note that landmark 11 is on the right lateral surface, opposite landmark 6, and landmark 13 is on the right lateral surface, opposite landmark 8. (B) Distances between pairs of landmarks were used as measurements to quantify craniofacial morphology. (C-I) Combined analysis of craniofacial morphological measures for cped1sa20221 and cped1w1003 mutants and their corresponding wildtype clutchmates. Each point represents an individual fish. Shown are p-values from Sidak’s multiple comparisons tests; no significant p-values for comparisons between homozygous mutants and controls were observed.
