(A, B) Frequency of ocular dissemination (as % of infected eyes) after caudal vein injection of 100 CFU of Mycobacterium marinum. (A) Larvae infected at 3 days-post-fertilization, in three separate experiments (n = 108, 92, and 120). (B) Larvae infected at 2 dpf, before formation of the BRB (pre-BRB), or at 3 dpf, following formation of the BRB (post-BRB). Each eye was scored for the presence of infection at 24 hours post-infection.
