ark mutant embryos are characterized by reduced rates of apoptosis. (a) Acridine orange labelings of wild-type (top left) and several ark alleles indicated in the panels. White arrows point to the dying cells in the head region of ark mutant embryos. All embryos in this panel and panel B were obtained from germline clone (see Materials and Methods). (b) Anti-cleaved caspase-3 labelings of wild-type (top left) and several ark alleles indicated in the panels
