Figure Caption
Fig. 2 Zebrafish stripe mutants cause distinct patterning defects. Adult wild-type zebrafish (WT) have several stripes in the body and fins. Homozygous jaguarb230 mutants (jag) have fewer and broader stripes, while homozygous leopardt1 mutants (leo) have spots. Fish homozygous for both jagb230 and leot1 (jag;leo) lack all body stripe melanocytes, but retain dorsal scale-associated melanocytes.
