Kinematic parameters were analyzed and compared using ANOVA. Turn duration was defined as the time from initiation of response to peak turn angle. Data are reported as mean ± SE.

a

Three dpf homozygous mutants (n = 6) and wild-type siblings (n = 4).

b

Five dpf homozygous mutants (n = 6) and wild-type mutants (n = 5).
