Figure 5. Analyses of oocyte growth, ovulation rate, and egg number of N2 worms and PUFA-deficient mutants.

Figure 5

(a) The cellular size of the oocytes (n = 9~11), (b) ovulation rate (n = 20~32), and (c) egg number (n = 10~13) of N2, fat-1, fat-3, fat-4, fat-2, and fat-2 worms supplemented with 18:1,n9, 18:2,n6, 18:3,n6, and 18:3,n3. (d) The normalized rate of lipid delivery into oocytes in N2, fat-1, fat-3, fat-4, fat-2, and fat-2 worms supplemented with 18:1,n9, 18:2,n6, 18:3,n6, and 18:3,n3. The data are normalized by wild-type (N2). All worms are 1D-Ad worms. Error bars represent SEM. (P-value: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. ns: not significant).
