a
Embryos failing to hatch on NGM plates.
b
M− Z− are animals lacking both maternal and zygotic dsh-2 function.
c
M+ Z− are animals with maternal dsh-2 function but lacking zygotic dsh-2 function.
d
M− Z+ are animals with zygotic dsh-2 function but lacking maternal dsh-2 function.
e
Not significantly different; p=0.19.
