Fig. 3. hi2499A mutants contain a mutagenic insertion in the
vps18 gene. (A) Viral insertion in the vps18 gene at
nucleotide 2236. Grey boxes indicate exons, horizontal lines indicate introns.
Triangle represents virus. (B) cDNA prepared from day 5 phenotypically
wild-type embryos and their mutant siblings from hi2499A
was amplified with vps18 and actin primers. (C) Unrooted phylogenetic
tree for vps18. Bootstrap numbers are indicated. (D) Percent identity
matrix for the Vps18 protein.
