Figure Caption
Fig. 3
Shown are wild-type (wt) and homozygous mutants for edn3a and edn3b, double mutant edn3a; edn3b, and ednrb1a. edn3a mutants had normal hypodermal pigment pattern, including iridophore interstripes (arrow, right) but lacked peritoneal iridophores (arrowhead). edn3b mutants had hypodermal iridophore and melanophore deficiencies but normal peritoneal iridophores. Fish doubly mutant for these loci exhibited both defects and resembled ednrb1a mutants. At the very young adult stages shown, ventral-most melanophores of ednrb1a mutants (*) have yet to coalesce into spots.
