miR-35 inhibits extraneous germ cell death by negatively regulating both egl-1 and ndk-1 expression. a Cell death is inhibited in mir-35(gk262); egl-1(n1084 n3082) loss-of-function double mutant (P < 0.0001 (****)). Worms were irradiated at young adult stage and corpses counted 24 h after irradiation. Number of corpses in b egl-1 3′-UTR (miR-35 mutant) (P < 0.0001 (****)) or c ndk-1 3′-UTR (mir-35 mutant) (P < 0.0001 (****), P = 0.0017 (**)) or d in the double mutant egl-1 3′-UTR (mir-35 mut.); ndk-1 3′-UTR (miR-35 mutant) young adults at 0 or 60 Gy (P < 0.0001 (****), P = 0.003 (**), n.s. = not significant). Worms were irradiated at young adult stage and corpses counted 24 h after irradiation. Symbols indicate outliers based on Tukey’s test (n ≥ 45 worms in three independent replicates)
