Fig. 5. Expression of markers for melanin-producing cells and neural crest cells. Gene expression in embryos at stage 33/34 (A, B) and stage 18 (C, D) was examined by whole-mount in situ hybridization with probes as indicated in the figures. Embryos were bleached after in situ hybridization in (A, B), whereas embryos in (C, D) were not bleached.
