Fig. 6. Axis patterning in csn4 and csn5 mutant oocytes. Oocytes were hybridized with digoxigenin-labeled antisense RNA probes. (A-D) oskar expression in wild-type (A), csn4^null (B), csn5^null (C) and csn5^P (D) mutant oocytes. (E-H) bicoid expression in wild-type (E), csn4^null (F), csn5^null (G), and csn5^P (H) mutant oocytes. (I-M) gurken expression in wild-type (I,J), csn4^null (K), csn5^null (L) and csn5^P (M) mutant oocytes. Late (I) and early (J) gurken patterns are shown for the wild type. The arrow indicates the posterior.
