Figure 5. The sup-9(n1435) and sup-18(lf) mutations act similarly in suppressing rubberband Unc mutant phenotypes.

Figure 5

(A) The effects of sup-9(n1435) and sup-18(n1030) mutations on the locomotion (body bends) of unc-93(gf) mutants are not additive. At least 12 young hermaphrodites were assayed for each genotype. Error bars, means ± SEMs. (B) The suppressive effects of sup-9(n1435) and sup-18(n1030) on the brood size defects of unc-93(e1500gf) mutants are not additive. Brood sizes of hermaphrodites were determined by picking L4 hermaphrodites to single plates, passaging them each day to a new plate and scoring the number of progeny on each plate. At least 11 animals were assayed for each genotype. Error bars, means ± SEMs. (C) Body bend assays of young males. At least 15 animals were assayed for each genotype. Error bars, means ± SEMs.
