↵*** extremely significant.
↵a L2 Animals were heat-shocked for 30 min in a water bath at the indicated temperature.
↵b In wild type, three cells are induced.
↵c P-values were calculated using the Mann-Whitney test, comparing the number of cells induced in each double-mutant animal to the number of cells induced in each syIs12 animal.
