Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of gonads,b animals,c or embryosd scored. nd, not determined.

a

“car-1” is the car-1(tm1753) deletion allele; hT2 is a balancer chromosome carrying car-1(+).

b

Percentage of gonads in which >1 proximal oocytes did not span the dorsal/ventral gonad borders.

c

Percentage of animals with large yolk droplets in the pseudoceloem.

d

Percentage of embryos with undetectable egg shells or cytokinesis defects as in Fig. 7 F.
