Figure 1


Fig. 1. Morphology of the lateral line system of zebrafish larvae. (A) Lateral and (B) dorsal views illustrate the distribution of neuromasts along the body, grouped by region (Harris et al., 2003). The supraorbital region (blue) includes the preoptic (PO) and supraorbital (SO) neuromasts. The infraorbital region (gold) includes the mandibular (M), infraorbital (IO) and opercular (OP) neuromasts. The caudal–cranial region (purple) includes the otic (O), occipital (OC), dorsal (D) and middle (MI) neuromasts. Finally, the posterior (P) neuromasts are located in the trunk region (green). (C) The morphology of an individual neuromast illustrates its major anatomical features. Four hair cells have been highlighted to clarify the major features of each cell. Scale bar, 10 µm.
