Early ablations of vestibular neurons leave fish unable to inflate their swim bladders. A, Tg(−6.7FRhcrtR:gal4VP16); Tg(14×UAS-E1b:hChR2(H134R)-EYFP); mitfa−/− fish swimming in a cuvette in the dark at 144 hpf. Red arrows point to swim bladders. B, Sibling fish where the vestibular neurons in these fish were photoablated at 72 hpf, before swim bladder inflation. Note the absence of a swim bladder, evaluated here at 144 hpf. Images are taken from Figures 9-1 and 9-2.
