Abstract excerpt
Zebrafish holds great potential as a model system for studying inner ear development because genetic techniques are highly efficient and inner ear development is a conspicuous and manipulable feature of zebrafish embryogenesis. Here we describe analysis of a semilethal dominant mutation, termed monolith (mnl), that specifically perturbs formation of the anterior (utricular) otolith in the developing ear. Other...
