Title: Lateral line sensory neurons in the zebrafish larva

Size: 800 x 346
Description: Fish sense water movements in their surroundings by means of the lateral-line sensory system. Information captured by the lateral-line sensory organs, the neuromasts, is relayed to the brain through the lateral-line sensory neurons, highlighted in green (GFP) in the HGn39D transgenic larva of the image. Moreover, a subset of these neurons were labeled by red-fluorescent (rhodamine dextran) injection into a single neuromast. The lens of the eye is also GFP positive in this fish.
