Figure Caption

Fig. 6 Allelic titration of slc12a7a/kcc4a expressivity revealing necessity and sensitivity to levels of Kcc4a during development. A) Identified deletions in F1 progeny and predicted protein alteration; blue box, sequence targeted by guide RNA. B) Representative pictures of individuals heterozygous for different slc12a7a/kcc4a alleles. C) Barbel phenotypes conferred by different slc12a7a/kcc4a alleles. D) Schematic of Kcc4a protein depicting locations of premature stop codon, 3 amino acid deletion, 6 amino acid deletion (red asterisk), and schleier mutation (yellow asterisk). E) Tabulation of relative length of fins and barbels in F1 progeny heterozygous for each genotype; mean ± SEM is shown. n.s., not significant; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01 calculated using a one-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey’s multiple comparisons test; n = 6–19 fish per genotype.
