Figure 3

The midline-associated cells are lineal descendants of four dorsomedial (DM) neuroblasts. Embryonically induced flip-out clones showing that midline associated cells (cells in yellow dotted circles) are lineal descendants of four DM neuroblasts. (A) DM1 flip-out clone, (B) DM2 flip-out clone, (C) DM3 flip-out clone, (D) DM4 flip-out clone, (E) DM5 flip-out clone, (F) DM6 flip-out clone. Whereas DM1, DM2, DM3 and DM6 neuroblast clones invariably comprise between 10 and 23 midline associated cells, such cells were never found in DM4 and DM5 neuroblast clones. Dotted circles in (A,B,C,F) indicate midline associated cells, which are absent in (D, E). (G) Average number of midline cells in DM flip-out clones, error bars are standard deviations. Scale bars, 25 μm.
