The number of Sox10⁺ cells is decreased in morphants at 4 DPF. a-b Tg(sox10:TagRFP) 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 Sox10⁺ cells counted across both groups N = 10 per group) at 4 DPF. P-value pertains to the statistically significant difference between the RC group and the MO group (***p = 0.0002). d qPCR demonstrating the expression of sox10 (N = 15 total) in RC and MO groups at 4 DPF (**p = 0.005). qPCR was performed on two independent occasions (biological replicates), each represented by a gray dot. Each biological replicate had a minimum of 7 larvae/group and a total n = 15
