Alcian green staining of pharyngeal cartilages in wildtype (WT) and lessen (lsn) mutants. One hundred and twenty hours postfertilization wild-type (A, C) and lsn mutant (B, D) larvae stained with alcian green shown in lateral (A, B) and ventral (C, D) views. In lsn pharyngeal cartilages, development is abnormal. Notably, the ceratobranchials 4 and 5 are absent in lsn. cb 1–5, ceratobranchial cartilages 1–5; ch, ceratohyal cartilage; hs, hyosymplectic cartilage; m, Meckel’s cartilage; pq, palatoquadrate cartilage.
