Fig. 7. Distribution of wun2 RNA. Wild-type embryos (A-C) and embryos from
wun2
/Df(2R)w45-19g females
(wun2
embryos; D) were stained for wun2
RNA. (A) wun2 RNA was detected throughout the stage-2 embryo.
(B,B') At stage 4, wun2 RNA remained in pole cells, while the
signal in somatic cells disappeared. (B') Highlighting of the posterior
pole of the embryo shown in B. (C) At stage 5, wun2 RNA was detected
in pole cells and in a posterior stripe. (D) Stage 5
wun2
embryo showing the absence of wun2
RNA in pole cells but its presence in a posterior stripe.
