Figure 6

Adult asip1K.O. ventral scales displayed a dorsalized color pattern. (A) 210 dpf asip1K.O. ventral scales exhibit a pattern of melanophores (black arrowheads), xanthophores (yellow arrowheads) and also iridophores (white arrowheads). (B) 210 dpf WT ventral scale does not exhibit any chromatophores. (C,D) 210 dpf WT and asip1K.O. dorsal scales exhibit a similar pattern of melanophores, xanthophores and iridophores. Scale bars: 100 μm.
