Axial midline structures play a central role as signalling centres during the development of the vertebrate embryo. We have isolated mutant alleles of a new locus, __oneโeyed pinhead__ (__oep__), in the zebrafish that are characterized by cyclopia and impaired development of the floor plate. __oep__
## Abstract __even__โ__skipped__โrelated (__evx__) genes encode homeodomainโcontaining transcription factors that are involved in a series of developmental processes such as posterior body patterning and neurodifferentiation. Although __evx1__ and __evx2__ were not reported to be expressed during m
