Phenotype Image Detail

Caption

Eye dysmorphology in Rps7^Zma/Rps7⁺ mutants. Representative whole-mount images from one wild-type (WT) and two different heterozygous mutant embryos are shown at E12.5 (A-C) and 14.5 (D-F). In addition, H&E stained sagittal sections through the eye are shown for one WT and two different mutant embryos at E18.5 (G-I). The eye dysmorphology of mutants ranges in severity from minor unilateral or bilateral uveal coloboma (E, H) to severe microphthalmia resulting in disorganized eye structures (C, F, I). Arrows in E and F mark examples of coloboma and extreme microphthalmia, respectively. Arrow in H marks abnormal folding of the retinal layers. All images are oriented with anterior up, rostral to the right. Within each age group/row, all genotypes are shown at the same magnification. Scale bars = 0.5 mm
