Figure 5

sacy-1(tn1481) adult hermaphrodites exhibit a masculinization of germline (Mog) sterile phenotype. DIC images of (A) wild-type and (B) sacy-1(tn1481) adult hermaphrodites. The wild-type animal contains oocytes and sperm and produces embryos but the sacy-1(tn1481) animal only produces sperm. (C–L) Dissected gonads stained for the RME-2 yolk receptor (C and G), the major sperm protein (D and H), or DNA (E, I, and K). Merged images are also shown (F, J, and L). The sacy-1(tn1481) mutant overproduces sperm to the exclusion of oocytes and is sterile. This phenotype is completely penetrant. Bar, 50 μm.
