  1. 1...Leaky expression was mainly observed in the yolk only
  2. 2...Expression of internal (CFP) and independent (YFP) effector in the embryonic body was scored separately; CFP/YFP
  3. 3...Injection was performed in offspring of heterozygous carriers mated to wildtype fish, resulting in ~50% transgenic embryos
