Kinky-tail phenotype in Epha1^tm1Sld/Epha1^tm1Sld mice. (a) Plain radiograph images show normal tail morphology in wild-type mice. (b) Epha1^tm1Sld/Epha1^tm1Sld mice demonstrate kinky-tail morphology (arrow). (c) The external appearance of a normal wild-type mouse tail. (d) The appearance of a mutant mouse tail shows an obvious kink (arrow). (e) H&E stained section of a decalcified wild-type mouse tail shows the appearance of normal vertebrae (arrows). (f) An H&E stained section from the tail of a mutant mouse shows an abnormally positioned vertebra (arrow) that has introduced a kink. Scale bars indicate 1,000 um.
