Abstract The direction of left-right (L-R) visceral asymmetry is conserved in vertebrates. Deviations of the asymmetric pattern are rare, and the underlying mechanisms are not understood. Here we use the teleost Astyanax mexicanus, a single species consisting of surface fish with normal left-oriented heart asymmetry and cavefish with high levels of reversed right-oriented heart asymmetry, to explore natural changes in L-R determination.
