TABLE 3.
The nucleus of Z4 was ablated with a laser microbeam in newly hatched L1 larvae of lin-12(n302) and lin-12(n302); emb-4(sa44) genotypes. Success of ablations was confirmed and the presence of an AC was scored during the late L3 stage.
Number of animals that exhibited the cell fate indicated divided by the total number of animals examined.
Four lin-12(n302) animals were scored in this work; previously, 11 animals were handled identically by Wen et al. (1997).
