Fig. 4. Other cell body position defects in sax-8 mutants. (A) Cell body position defect of the bilateral AVK neurons in sax-8 mutants. Arrows indicate AVK cell bodies. (B) Quantification of the cell body position defect of AVK (L1: n=29-121; A: n=63-94). The position in threefold embryos is already defective (data not shown). L1, freshly hatched first larval stage animals; A, young adults that have just molted. (C) Gonad displacement in freshly hatched L1 larvae. In ky188, ky199 and ky201, the gonad is frequently displaced in the anterior direction, and more rarely in the posterior direction.
