The number of Col2a1a⁺ cells is decreased at 4 DPF. a-b Tg(col2a2a:EGFP) random control (RC) and morphant (MO) larvae (N = 10 per group) were mounted in agarose and confocal images were taken at 4 days post fertilization (DPF). c shows the representative region where cells were quantified with a corresponding schematic showing the parameters (3 rows left, 5 rows right). c′ Average number of Col2a1a⁺ cells counted across both groups (N = 10 per groups) at 4 DPF. P-value pertains to the statistically significant difference between the RC group and the MOs (***p = 1.44x^− 05)
