Genetic crosses were set up to generate the indicated progeny genotype as a means of investigating genetic interactions between wee1 and myt1. Σ is the sum of individuals from all genotypes in an experiment. The indicated P-values represent the probability that the observed distribution of genotypes is not significantly different from the expected values, according to Pearson's chi-square test. **Highly significant difference.
