The spt-1 mutation alters segmental arrangement and axonal development of identified neurons in the spinal cord of the embryonic zebrafish.
Neuron - 1 May 1991
Eisen J S, Pike S H
Abstract excerpt
We examined the arrangement and development of identified neurons in zebrafish embryos homozygous for the mutation spt-1, which acts autonomously and specifically to alter the development of precursors of trunk segmented mesoderm, resulting in muscle-deficient myotomes. We found that the mutation...
