Confocal image of zebrafish embryo (red), showing neural
tube. Image taken using Zeiss LSM 510 Confocal
Microscope.

Neural tube of zebrafish embryo (red)

Sagittal (midline) section at the optic chiasm of
a Noi mutant two-day-old zebrafish embryo showing
that the optic nerve axons from the two eyes are
not discrete as they are in the normal embryo
(B0001093C). The optic chiasm is the point where
the axons cross the midline toward their target
brain regions.

Zebrafish optic chiasm

Confocal images of zebrafish embryo,
showing neural tube. Image taken using Zeiss LSM
510 Confocal Microscope. Neural tissue shows
green.

Neural tube of zebrafish embryo, green

Dorsal view of the head region in a zebrafish
embryo which has been stained to show neuron
development in the epiphysial region of the
diencephalon, part of the developing forebrain.
This is the region where neurons first develop in
the forebrain. In this 'floating head' mutant,
neurons which should be seen at this stage (see
wildtype B0001159C) are missing from this area.

This differential interference contrast image
shows a section through the eye of a three-day old
zebrafish embryo. At this stage of development,
the nerve cells in the retina have begun to
separate into different layers. The outer layer of
cells are stained black with a marker for
photoreceptor cells, the neurons that respond to
light. (credit: R. MacDonald & S. Wilson) Biomedical Image Awards 1998.
