Table 1. Worms depleted of riok-1 had a significant reduction in the size of the mitotic zone.
Distal germ cells count (diameter) | ||
---|---|---|
Mitotic zone (MZ) | Transition zone (TZ) | |
Wild-type | 19 cells ± 0.4 (n = 10) | 9 cells ± 0.3 (n = 10) |
riok-1(RNAi) | 12 cells ± 0.7 (n = 10) | 7 cells ± 0.4 (n = 10) |
Values represent Mean and SEM (P <0.0001).
