Figure Caption

Fig. 1 Pharyngula (24 hr) wild-type (WT, A) and mutant embryos (B–G, the gene name abbreviations on this and other figures indicate homozygous mutants for the loci indicated). The head of the cyc;flh double mutant (E) is similar to cyc^- (B; see Hatta et al., 1991), whereas the body is similar to flh^- (C), with respect to both midline somite fusion and lack of ventral body curvature. The tail of the flh;ntl double mutant (F) is like ntl^- (D), and in this example there is a patch of fused somites, as present in flh^-, just dorsal to the yolk extension. Somite fusion is variable, occurring in 43% (15/35) of embryos subsequently confirmed to be flh;ntl double mutants by PCR genotyping (see Materials and Methods). The cyc;ntl double mutant (G) combines the cyc^- head and ntl^- tail phenotypes. Scale bar, 250 um.
