closeFigure legends
Posted by Carvanmj on 04 Jul 2014 at 16:31 GMT
One of the authors of this manuscript noticed after publication that the figure legends are not associated with the proper figures. We are working with PLoS ONE to fix this.
The problem:
Figure 6 shows the photos of ovary, but has the caption for kidney. Figure 7 shows the photos for kidney and has the caption for heart. Figure 8 shows the heart and has the caption for ovary.
The correct captions are:
Figure 6. TCDD caused disruption of ovary development in zebrafish at 42 d. A) Ovulated vitellogenic follicles (V) in mature ovary of zebrafish in 0 ppb group; B) immature ovary in fish treated with 100 ppb TCDD. Ovary lacks vitellogenic follicles. Moderate interstitial edema (arrows) was observed; only previtellogenic oocytes are present: cortical alveolar oocytes (C) and perinucleolar oocytes (P) (10X).
Figure 7. TCDD induced hemopoietic hypoplasia in kidney at 42 d. A) Normal hemopoietic tissue (arrow) in interstitium of anterior kidney of zebrafish in 0 ppb group; B) depletion of hemopoietic tissue (arrow) from interstitium of anterior kidney of zebrafish in 100 ppb group at 42 d (40X).
Figure 8. TCDD caused pericardial edema in zebrafish at 42 d. A) Normal heart in zebrafish of 0 ppb group; B) pericardial edema (arrow) in fish fed 100 ppb TCDD at 42 d (5X).
