a

Embryos in this class exhibited a complete failure in germband retraction.

b

Embryos in this class exhibited strong defects in germband retraction and also often had defects in dorsal closure.

c

Embryos in this class exhibited defects in dorsal closure ranging from dorsal holes to defects in the dorsal pattern.

d

Embryos in this class exhibited severe defect in head involution; most also showed defects in dorsal closure and/or germband retraction.
