aIn order to feminize the animals without using a temperature-sensitive fem mutation, hermaphrodites were grown at the indicated temperature until they had stopped producing fertilized eggs (5 days after reaching the L4 stage at 25°C and 7 days after L4 at 14°C). For the up-shift experiment shown in row 7, the animals were grown at 14°C for 7 days and then placed at 25°C for another 2 days.
bThe Emo phenotype was scored by examining adults for the presence of endomitotic oocytes in the proximal gonad arm by DAPI staining or using Nomarski optics (rows 3 and 4). Where appropriate, the 95% confidence intervals are indicated.
cn refers to the number of animals scored.
