Radiographic examinations of wild-type and Fgf9^Eks/Fgf9⁺ mice. A: Whole-mount views of 6 week old wild-type (+/+) and Fgf9^Eks/Fgf9⁺ (Eks/+) mice. Deformities in the caudal vertebrae are indicated by arrows. B and C: Higer magnification views of elbow joints of 6 week old wild-type (B) and heterozygous (C) mice. Elbow joints are indicated by arrows. Note the lack of a synovial cavity in the heterozygotes. D and E: Higher magnification views of knee joints of 10 week old wild-type (D) and heterozygous (E) mice. Knee joints are indicated by arrows. Note the lack of a synovial cavity in the heterozygotes.
