Figure Caption
Fig. 6 Fig. 6. Fgf8 mRNA is expressed in distinct anatomical regions of the mature craniofacial skeleton. (A) A 6-month-old wild-type zebrafish head showing fgf8 expression in the upper jaw apparatus (black arrow), operculum (white arrow), and sagittal suture (inset). Scale bar equals 1 mm. (B) The dissected operculum shows fgf8 expression throughout the subopercle (sop) and along the proximal–distal surface of the opercle (op) (black arrow). Scale bar = 500 μm. (C) Expression of fgf8 is also observed along the ventral surface of the mandible. Scale bar = 500 μm.
