Figure 4. Glial suppression of khc reduces contractibility.

(A) MDS analysis of area sizes (area¹⁸⁰⁰ to area²) of individual larvae expressing khc dsRNA (green circles) or Orco dsRNA (blue circles) in all glial cells. (B) Discretized distribution of mean area sizes. The panglial knockdown of khc leads to bigger larvae. (C,D) Plot of area changes over time. (C) Panglial knockdown of Orco. (D) Panglial knockdown of khc. (E) Discretized contraction intensity intervals plotted against the mean contraction intensity. Upon khc knockdown reduced contraction intensity is observed.
