Figure Caption

Fig. 6 Lmx1b functions cell-autonomously in development of periocular mesenchymal cells. (A) Bright field and fluorescent images of control MO and lmx1bdMO eyes showing foxD3:GFP-positive periocular mesenchymal cells. (B) Ocular region (outlined by white dots) of 30 hpf mosaic embryos showing wild-type or lmx1bdMO morphant donors. All donor cell nuclei are positive for H2A:mCherry (red), while a subset of periocular cells are positive for foxD3:GFP (green). (C) Average number ± Standard Error of the Mean for total H2A:mCherry and foxD3:GFP-positive donor periocular cells from mosaic embryos. Percent of total periocular cells that were foxD3-positive is shown in the right-most column. For each condition, donor cells from n = 12 independent eyes were scored.
