Fig. 8. Graphical representation of the rescue of sens phenotype by cell death genes. The graph shows the percentage of embryos with particular salivary gland lengths in the different genotypes and the table below shows the numbers represented in the graph. The lengths of the salivary glands are assessed by comparing them with the length of the ectodermal thoracic segments. The numbers in parenthesis are the number of embryos for each condition. Asterisk indicates the percentage of embryos with salivary glands that did not invaginate completely. Double asterisks indicate that all the embryos in this category had salivary glands that were two segments long.
