Fig 3. Zygotic gene activation is required for changes in furrow dimensions.

Fig 3

(A) Furrow dynamics for α-amanitin injected embryos during cycle 11–13 (cycle 11 and 12: n = 5; cycle 13: n = 4). (B) zld mutant furrow dynamics from cycle 11–13 (n = 5). (C) Furrow morphology in WT, α-amanitin injected, and zld mutant embryos at 2 min and 10 min in cycle 13. A region just adjacent to the furrow tips is shown. Scale bar = 5 μm (D) Broken furrow phenotype in α-amanitin injected and zld mutant embryos at 6 min and 12 min in cycle 13. A region just adjacent to the furrow tips is shown. Scale bar = 5 μm (E) Maximal furrow ingression rates of α-amanitin injected and zld mutant embryos from cycle 11–13 (n≥4). *:p<0.05; **: p<0.005; ***: p<0.0005; ns: not significant. (F) Total cycle time of α-amanitin injected and zld mutant embryos from cycle 11–13 (n≥4). *:p<0.05; **: p<0.005; ***: p<0.0005; ns: not significant.
