Fig. 2

Apoptosis in the tectum of noi mutant embryos. Shown is a comparison of Nomarski (A-C) and fluourescence (D-F) images of the same embryos, stained with acridine orange to detect apoptotic cell death. (A,D) Wild-type embryo at 22 h of development; (B,E) homozygous mutant noi^tu29a embryo at 22 h, stained with acridine orange. (C,F) Homozygous mutant noi^ty22b embryo at 26 h, stained with acridine orange. Large numbers of stained cells are observed in the tectum of mutant embryos in E and F (arrows) that are absent in the wild type. Degenerating, more refractile cells are also seen with Nomarski optics in C (between arrowheads). Scale bar, 120 µm.
