Figure 5: (A) Z-lines of worms with the indicated genotypes are shown. A singular electron-dense body is seen in wild-type, while the FHOD-1(-) Z-line contains multiple, thinner bodies, and the CYK-1(-) and FHOD-1(-); CYK-1(-) Z-lines contain reduced amounts of electron-dense material. (B) Z-lines in worms with the indicated genotypes were visually categorized as containing: singular electron-dense bodies, multiple shredded electron-dense bodies, or very little to no electron-dense material. Results shown are representative of two independent experiments that scored twenty Z-lines of each strain.
