Fig. 7. Evolution of polarity in zyg-11(RNAi) embryos. (A-C)
Images from time-lapse sequences of zyg-11(RNAi) embryos
expressing GFPPAR-2 and GFP-HIS, as well as GFP-TUB, shown during the meoisis
II delay (left panel), the first mitotic division (middle panel) and the twoto
four-cell stage transition (right panel) (see also movies 8-10 at
http://dev.biologists.org/supplemental/).
Recordings were started during the meiosis II delay. Arrowheads point to first
polar body, arrows indicate condensed sperm DNA; stippled arrowhead and arrows
indicate that these positions can be determined only from the movies. Scale
bar: 10 µm. (D) Schematic representation of two-cell stage embryos
(n=19) corresponding to recordings A (6 embryos), B (10 embryos) or C
(3 embryos). See text for details.
