Figure 3


Fig. 3. Locomotor development in wild-type Drosophila embryos. Movements recorded from three embryos imaged from 16 hours AEL until hatching (around 21 hours AEL) using muscle imaging. From 17 hours AEL, muscle activity is episodic: sustained (30 seconds-2 minutes) bursts of muscle contraction are separated by longer periods of relative quiescence. The first complete wave of forward peristalsis occurs at ~18.25 hours AEL and the traces are aligned at this point. Black bars indicate hatching.
