An embryological study of ventralization of dorsal structures in the tail of medaka (Oryzias latipes) Da mutants.

Abstract excerpt

In adult Da (double anal fin) mutants of medaka (Oryzias latipes), structures such as the dorsal fin and the dorsal half of the caudal fin are ventralized in adult fish. However, there have been few embryological studies of the development of mutant phenotypes except those of the caudal fin. In this study, development of mutant phenotypes of the tail where they typically develop was examined morphologically at...
