Fig. 7. Fate map of wild-type, sqt-/-;
cyc+/+, sqt-/-;
cyc+/- and sqt-/-;
cyc-/- embryos. Positions of clones along the
animal-vegetal and dorsoventral axes are depicted on a graphic representation
of an embryo, in which each line represents a different row of cells. The `0'
line represents cells in contact with the YSL. In the dorsal region, clones
generating neural fates arose at least eight cell rows animal to the margin in
wild-type (A, top panel). By contrast, sqt-/-;
cyc+/+ (B) and sqt-/-;
cyc+/- (C) embryos, clones at the dorsal margin produced
spinal cord, hindbrain and midbrain. (D) As previously reported, dorsal
marginal cells in sqt-/-; cyc-/- adopt
neural fates. Two ventrolateral clones adopted tail muscle fates. The
genotypes of all embryos shown were determined by PCR after photography.
