Size control is downstream of die-1 but independent of lim-6 and fozi-1. (A) Gene regulatory network controlling ASE asymmetry [53]. (B) Measurements of ASEL and ASER volumes in various mutant backgrounds. Error bars are standard error of the mean. Based on statistical comparison, the measured sizes correspond to the following: 'WT' = the mutant ASEL volume is not significantly different from a wild-type ASEL and the mutant ASER volume is not significantly different from a wild-type ASER; '2L' = both cells are significantly different from ASER and not significantly different from ASEL; '2R' = both cells are significantly different from ASEL and not significantly different from ASER; '2R*' = both cells are significantly different from ASEL and not significantly different from ASER, but are significantly different from each other; all comparisons to wild-type cells utilize the Bonferroni correction. **P < 0.01. (C) The effect of loss of die-1 on nucleoli number in ASEL versus ASER. Wild-type control is repeated from Figure 2 and shown for comparison only. *P < 0.05, as determined by a Wilcoxon signed-rank test; ns, not significant.
