Figure 9:

THir labeling in the ventromedial thalamic nucleus (VM), ventrolateral thalamic nucleus (VL), and type 1 neurons of the periventricular nucleus of the posterior tuberculum (TPp). Images of cave (a) and surface (b, c) Astyanax show THir (green) and DAPI (blue) immunoreactivity. The box plots (d-f) show THir somata distributions that were significantly larger (p < 0.001) in the cave form in both VL and TPp type 1 neurons, but not in VM.Black dots are the mean diameter, middle white line is the median, limits of the colored box indicate quartiles, and vertical white lines extend to the minimum and maximum diameters.
